Default how to help my friend ?????????? ABOUT SUICIDE

I need to vent a tiny bit and mostly just let some things out and maybe get advice .
so here is the situation.
I have two contacts both had trail for the PNS aka neuro stim. one was very successful the other wasn't and it failed to help her with the pain. both of these two people were pretty good friends before I came into the picture. so the one whos trail failed dosent really chat at me or anything she write the other friend.
well things have been getting darker and darker in the messages she sending. she is speaking of suicide and such.
too I have to add that this friend whose trail helped we have become pretty good friends and she has shared some of the message with me. I have been trying to get her to stop reading all the emails and the posts.I want her to heal from the trail and just be well over all in mind body and spirit ..so she is ready for the final implant. in doing that I have been telling this friend she needs to call this persons husband and let him see the big true picture.let him know his wife is considering suicide. I have told her to do this a good many times. today we made promise to each other that 1-- she will call the hub and speak with him and 2 --that if she dose that I wont post to this person directly in a forum in which I would speak to the whole forum and let everyone know what she has talked of doing.

I do not think it is fair for anyone to be held hostage by someone else who talks of taking their own life.It has made me very angry up set and crying. I can only think of what my friend is feeling like and the guilt she has shared with me over this. I just want to help her.I want to make a protective bubble around them both and make everything all right for them both. My friend is barely able to deal with her own pain as she waits for the final implant.
I do not want to ruin their friendship but i know that will happen when the other finds out this friend has shared with me. I do not know what to do.
am I doing the right thing by trying to get friend to call that persons hub and telling him what is going on with his wife??????????????????? Tell him his wife is suicidal and has thoughts and plans. is that wrong to do????
please any advice or suggestions would be priceless.
thank you ahead of time for anything anyone can say share or advise.
PEACE

p.s.
yes i have given my friend the suicide hot line number. she is thinking of calling it just to be able to talk to someone about the friend and maybe get help that way.She is also giving the number to the friend too.
