I think battered husbands are more common than you would think. I'm not sure how to go about getting help. Perhaps talking to his doctor?
You have a lot less power to help him than he would have probably had to help you, if he's not willing to leave her. Have the police ever been involved? Social services?
Do you think he's open to the idea of leaving? Not necessarily to go to you, if that's not a good solution. If you've escaped the drama, you'd have to make sure you weren't bringing it back into your life.

It seems there is all too short a period of time between needing our parents and our parents needing us.
