Thinking about it is at least better than pretending it's not a problem.
[ She smiles in a way that she hopes is encouraging. Talking about it is a beginning, and she feels that if he's anything like her, he's mostly kept most of this to himself. ]

If it helped any, then I'm glad. And I'll be here for you, too.
[He doesn't know what his goal here was beyond be helpful, and to check if she's okay. As much as anyone can be okay this particular week, at least. If that was successful, then for the moment, he's content. The rest can wait.]
