Comment from Dolly'sPoems
It is hard for alcoholics to admit they have a problem and once they do it is the start of recovery. I remember chatting to a man fitting a security door over my front door and he told me about his life, mainly because I asked. He said his first wife was an alcoholic and she refused to get any help. He loved her so much but his life was a living hell because she was drunk all the time. He left her and they divorced and he remarried and he had a happy life and his ex-wife never changed and still remained a drunk. Sometimes people cannot be helped and we have to move on. I hope in this case that this guy sees the light, we will see. I enjoyed the first part of your story Gretchen, good luck with it, love Dolly x

Thank you, Dolly. I have a friend who is an alcoholic yet she continues to deny it. She binge drinks. Doesn't think that counts. Sad really. Gretchen
