I had a great uncle who drank himself to death and left a family behind. My mom remembers going to their house and watching him shake on the couch. Uncle Eddy didn't have the options we are fortunate to have today. There are support groups of all kinds, books of all kinds, and other outlets that do a lot of good for people who want to beat it.
Yes, Simply Red, you are in my thoughts and I will pray for you. An addiction like this is a great test of the Cardinal Virtues. It takes wisdom to seek help, courage to fight, and temperance, a fight against the desires, to overcome. I pray the Virtues never fade far from your sight.
