I understand its very hard to talk about this stuff, but its the fantasies that keep us stuck.

Yeah, T has noted things where I'm "trying to care of him," too. Not so glaring as wishing I could support MC while his wife was sick, but little things he noticed. Like once he'd commented that his wife was sick (ack!) so had to look at a text because he'd be responsible to get his son from school if something happened. I think we were supposed to have a session in the next day or two after that, it was supposed to snow, so I asked T if he'd still be able to come in if school closed, in case his wife was still sick. Which...honestly, that was more taking care of *me* since I was trying to figure out if he might have to cancel, but he saw it as taking care of him.
