Hi — thanks so much for reaching out. I’m not ignoring you on purpose.

Please know:

I care about you and your message.

I will respond, but it may take time.

A gentle nudge is okay if it’s been a while. Short, calm messages help me more than repeats that feel urgent.

If something is urgent (health, safety, or immediate deadlines), please mark it clearly or contact someone else as well.

If you’re waiting on something specific, telling me:

what you need,

how urgent it is,

and a preferred way for me to reply (text, voice note, or short call) can help me respond sooner.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. Your kindness makes it easier for me to come back to you.
