I am so pleased you managed to get some help at last. It is so frustrating when no one will help. Hope your Mum gets a well earned rest. Take Care.

Good news tony,hope he comes through it,but remember it will always be one day at a time,once an alcholic forever one,only one drink away,so he will need a lot of support,just be there,good luck, Ray

[gsxr1100tony]

thanks ray
when he comes out i will give him all the support and try to understand what he is going through
i think it scared the life out of him when the docter said very bluntley kevin youve got two choices..... give up drinking with my help...or
ask you mum and the rest of your family to start making funeral arrangements because you will be dead within 12 months

cheers again and again ray

Good luck Tony and I with you all the very best for your family. My mother is an alcoholic and it destroyed her marriage and my relationship with her. Even to this very day she denies it and it is so sad to see her waste her life. At least your brother is getting help now. All the best and big hugs.xx

just gotta quickly say to pinkfizz sorry to hear that about your mother, that must be very dificult to deal with. I grew up with an abusive alcoholic father so I kinda know what its like.

My first ever boyfriend at school turned into an alcoholic, I met up with him after not seeing him for 20 years and he has been in and out of drying out clinics since, nearly killed himself a few times. My step father has just died through alcoholism as well.

gxsrtony all I can say is I wish your brother the best of luck, the way through is to try and get thru to the underlying emotional reason as to why he drinks and go from there. He is in the best place he can be at the moment.
