Helen just be there, meet his needs, pray for him, God will open up a pathway, his spirit will seek yours out and you will know exactly when to mention whats on your heart.

I agree with Clint though, and what soemone else said, mention it once, let him respond or not. If what you have to say is doen in a caring way most folks will respond in kind, they will either politely ask you to leave them alone thanking you for caring, or they will want to know more, at that point dont over whelm them, just answer thier questions as simple as you can.

That seems to work for me, and I find that it even works that way with strangers too.
