I'm sorry your going through this. Sometimes people just go elsewhere for a period of time. Its a way to clear their heads, readjust themselves, and it's not proper but it does happen where they do this with the wish of not being bothered.
I really don't know what else to tell you aside from being strong for your children. Keep good wishes, and help your kids by constructively answering questions they may ask, but without pointing fingers. Remember they love him too, and being upset like this, if the wrong things are said, it could affect them much deeper.
You were not wrong by refusing to discuss things when he's drunk. I know from being drunk a few times in the past, I have a hard enough time remembering when I get home, let alone any form of serious conversation.
I hope everything turns out the best for you and your children.
