It sounds like you're carrying the emotional weight for both of youâresearcher, advocate, emotional buffer, midnight worrier⊠and now sommelier, apparently. The woodworking YouTube binge might have been his quiet rebellion against a world spinning out of controlâeven before the PC diagnosisâso his current cool detachment might just be the same survival mechanism turned up a notch.
You're right to worry that this stoicism might get in the way when real decisions need to be made. But sometimes those who appear detached are quietly absorbing more than we thinkâthey just havenât figured out how to shape their fear into action yet. Youâre doing more than enough by holding the line, but maybe thereâs a way to gently transfer the baton, one question or appointment at a timeâlike handing him a chisel and saying, âYour turn, love. Carve the next piece.â
And yes, keep the wine close. If nothing else, it pairs well with Google-induced panic and existential dread.
