I think that B.B.'s suggestions was a great one. Start each day being thankful that your friend has survived this. Be thankful for his purpose on this Earth that has kept him here. Do as B.B. suggested and even say these to him while he sleeps. Also, at some point after he is out of the hospital, perhaps you could watch the Secret with him. Perhaps seeing some of the discussion on being able to change your life from this moment forward would be helpful. This may be a while down the road, but it could help. Perhaps even thank him personally for surviving so that you could continue to have him in your life. I hope his recovery is quick and successful.
