Please be careful. My eldest sister in law was a major alcoholic(drank through every pregnancy and three of her seven now grown children have fetal alcohol) syndrome. She tried to quit and did for a year. Then she began again and finally drank herself into a coma and died four days later in 2007. My dad was an alcoholic and homeless for 25 yrs. He finally had a stroke that rendered him permanently paralyzed on one side and unable to swallow. Doctors found cancer when placing a camera for a feeding tube. A year of fighting for surgery for him as the feeding tube cut chemo out as an option and by that time it had metasticized through his entire stomach. He passed away in 2008.
