Should I "renetwork" with the same person?

About 8 months ago I got in contact with a guy who works at a decent MM bank in the UK which I really wanted to get into. We had a great chat, he asked me to send my CV over to an MD. But then, I had a big accident that made my life hell. For several months, I was back and forth between clinics, hospitals, surgery rooms, physiotherapy, etc. In addition, I lost the number I was texting/calling from, so our conversation kinda died out. I didn't think about reaching out again because I was preoccupied with sorting out my life which was falling apart. I want  to approach the same guy again, now that I am in the same city & have better experience overall. Should I do it?

If yes, how should I structure my message?

The title almost suggested that you had a falling out or did something stupid—just tell him what happened, except if there's more to the story than you're letting on

 

Minima non architecto itaque. Reprehenderit ut cupiditate id rerum vitae aut. Non in doloribus cumque minus sunt praesentium.
