I’m going to challenge the notion that there isn't enough fuel to get back.
My strategy would be to burn enough fuel to stop my outward (from the sun) trajectory, then crawl into the sleep chambers for a long winter’s nap.
The best chance is rescue, and the shorter the distance between me and SAR is, the better my chances. It might take 10 years, but if I’m in cold sleep (assumption, assumption), I’ll live.
