I hope your son knows by now that death is never a solution to a problem - it only creates more problems. Let this be a new chapter in your relationship with your son. Be strong for him and let him know you're in his corner - that he can turn to you whenever life becomes overwhelming. Be ready, willing and able to listen to anything that may come out of his mouth - and try not to overreact to anything he might say. As hard as it might sound, it will give you the base from where he's coming from. It will help him to identify the source of his fear, anger, etc. toward life. If you can remain strong, it might give him the strength to see the beauty in life - and why it's worth it to fight to stay alive. 
Good luck to you and your son.
