Found my husband overdosed wondering how to handle future plans

Im not sure what the right thing to do is. Backstory is I (41F) came home from work 4 days ago and discovered my husband (46M) on the ground of our bathroom purple and basically dead. I used two doses of Narcan and he was revived. He was taken by ambulance and it it was the most horrific scary traumatic thing I have ever gone through and I am still very much fucked up over it. He went to the hospital and has since started taking Suboxone. Mentally he is still pretty messed up he has been a user for a very, very long time.

I go on a yearly trip with family and it is very important to me. It’s the only trip I take pretty much all year. However, I am supposed to leave tomorrow and that would leave him alone. He’s insisting that I should go that he will be fine, but I don’t know that he will also he refuses to tell anybody in his family or mine the real truth behind what happened so I am literally his only support network right now I’m in being forced to lie and cover for him about his addiction. I’m not sure whether I should still go or insist I stay home to help him during this difficult part of getting of opioids.
