Believe me, I can empathize! I have a very close friend I've known for over 50 years that has also had recent contemplations concerning suicide. His reasons run very, very deep ( mostly tied to the medical problems he must endure on a daily basis ). I do all that I can, whenever I can, but it's hard sometimes. Those RAKs are a wonderful idea, of course, but they may not always be enough for certain people. Life is tough, but we do what we can . . .

Re:

I made sure his wife got him in to see his physician. I didn't leave home until I knew they were on their way to his office.

So I take it, he recovered from those depressive thoughts. As you say, it is laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone. Well done for giving a helping hand, I hope he saw his doctor afterwards, sometimes it is possible to receive help from pills, but nothing is as good as a friendly gesture.
