I understand the simultaneous detachment and empathy. It is hard to see someone you care about suffer at their own hands like that. Just makes you want to shake them til they come to their senses. But in the end, they won't accept anything from us and we are powerless to help. Just letting him know that you are there will be a big thing, though (for you).
