Generous

"You are a generous man," I said after Andrew told me how he had taken care of his wife, his sisters. "What are you doing to take care of yourself since your wife died?" 

He said he was going through the motions of being alive, but had no interest in much of anything. "She and I shared a love of nature photography. We joined the local photography club but we didn't own the fancy cameras that most of the members had." 

"Two really good friends of ours are nature photographers. They're our neighbors. We've gotten to be quite close," I said. 

I hoped I did not cut him off, move the conversation in a different direction too abruptly. 

Do you think I changed the conversation direction too fast?
