I'll take any insight and support I can get at this point.
You really tried your best and could not have protected him more than you already did. And he is that way because of "the fault in our stars", not anything that you did.

Has he tried online therapy? maybe without the physical presence of a therapist in the same room, he won't feel so re-traumatized.
