Sorry that you've been unwell, and I wish you a complete and rapid recovery.
The priest/chaplain you spoke with left, once you made your wishes known. I think that's the best you can hope for in situations like this. Keep in mind that individual clergy members are not Religion or the Church. They're ordinary people, who may be wrong/misguided....but they are often just trying to help. As long as they respect your wishes when you tell them you're not interested, I wouldn't worry much about it.
