Legal Question in Family Law in West Virginia

Joint Custody and other parent has had a stroke

My ex and I have 50/50 custody of our two small children. He recently had a stroke and has lost function on the left side of his body. What do I need to do now? It is very unlikely that he will recover from this and I need to know how to proceed concerning custody, child support, and visitation. He is not going to be able to take care of himself, much less two small children.
