Husband has Stopped Eating

I am concerned. I don’t think my husband has eaten for several days. He doesn’t eat breakfast in the mornings (this isn’t unusual for him). He and I work at the same office, and I know he hasn’t been eating lunch. At home, in the evenings, when I call him and the children for dinner, he just says “I’ll be alright” and doesn’t eat anything other than a glass of water.

Something is clearly wrong. He says he isn’t sick, and he doesn’t appear to be so, but I don’t know what else it could be. When I try to talk to him about it, he just says that he is fine and to stop asking him about the same thing over and over again. It has been four or five days, and I don’t think he has eaten anything.

What do I do?
