Ok, you asked for advice. Be careful what you ask for.
If you aren't up to working yet, don't. That doesn't mean you can't be helpful to him in other ways.
He was supportive when you needed it? Turnabout is fair play in good things, too, not just bad. Guys aren't that different from girls as far as needs go, they just don't like talking about it.
I find that when hubby is stressed from work nothing helps better than a good back scratch. It feels good, it's relaxing and involves touching - all things that just say "I'm here if you need me."
