I usually respond with something generic like, "Thanks for letting me know, hope you're feeling better soon." But I think that's optional and would not be rude or passive-aggressive to not respond.

Do you feel like you're getting pulled into wanting to take care of him? It seems like you've been really worried about him and his feelings lately, which is totally understandable, especially if his messiness has been spilling over on you a little with the way he has been conducting himself as a therapist. It just seems like you're trying to take care of him and make him feel competent when that is 100% not your job. (And believe me, I totally understand how it can happen!)
