Wow Julia, That DB session was amazing! I can really see what she said was so helpful - and you and your H need to start from the ground up right now and reestablish a friendship.
I didnt realise his Crohns had been that serious and that is massive at his age. I wasnt sure if you meant he did, or may have to have a colostomy, but I am assiming that he doesnt for now. No wonder he flipped out, I would have! Thats a really sad and unfortuante thing to have struck him and I guess he hasnt handled it at all well (not talking about it, missing appointments, leaving his lovely W to go be young and carefree!) I guess he is acting out of fear. It must be terribly hard to stand by and watch him potentially damage himself, but I suppose the DBC was right in that you will come off better if you are accapting and non-judgemental and be his friend, truly.
Sounds like it was money well spent ! Well done on the email too,
