Suspected Cancer - struggling to support my husband

My husband has for several years had high PSA rating and been under the hospital.  His last reading in August was higher than it has been before so they wanted an MRI he had today had his results which show an abnormality and they are scheduling a biopsy.  I’m struggling how to support him he doesn’t want to talk about it and keeps crying.  To be honest I’m frightened of the outcome.  Any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated.
