I'm glad you posted this. I had a friend once who attempted suicide twice in a week. The second time, it caused so much damage she became a different friend and she just is not the same at all anymore. I guess the doc gave her anti depressants and they just affected her so badly she did that, with her children in the house.
I felt so helpless. She was on life support for awhile. The saddest part about it, is I lost her. We are no longer friends. It is not because I was angry but it is because the person she was is no longer here. I'm not one to desert someone easily either, but she has just become a horrible person
I commend you for being such a loyal friend. I think that is really the best you can do is show your support. It sounds like he has seperation anxiety from his wife, and they need to plan for him to stay with someone while she is gone. I hope he is doing ok
