[quote=Anonymous]I was married young right out of high school I had three children my husband began binge drinking for years then decided to stop for many years I really don't remember how he got started again but I know we both decided to go our own ways our children were all grown up by then and he continued to drink I decided to go to school in which I completed my MBA and continued to work and keep busy.  It took him a short seven years of daily drinking to kill himself I would frequently talk to him about his out of control drinking but to no avail he continued to drink.  I prepared my grown children that one day we will get a call saying that he is dying from alcoholism, sure enough three years ago I got the call so I told my kids we would go visit, but he was in stage of being disoriented he kept telling me that our two youngest were killed in a car accident I told him no they were fine but he just insisted that they died.  At this point it was hard to watch him suffer so much he was put in a local hospital then transferred to another hospital and only lived for one week.  My children and I watched him pass away this was very hard but I think this was an eye opener for my children because all three followed in his footstep all through there adult lives so now I see sobriety for them now most likely for the rest of there lives.[/quote]
