You made me laugh, and that is an accomplishment probably. Now if I could return the favor your way. Sure sounds like you need some humor to break the tension.

Whatever you do, don't try to fix nothing. Supportiveness of the hug vartiety with few words or none (which we know you are capable of)is what is called for. No heroics on your part just warmth, tenderness & gentleness. It will be memorable for him. And it is the soothing that he needs. Be fully tuned in to him. (even though his head has has been and will be increasing its spin). Be the rock.
