[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can't he buy it himself in assisted living? When he'll be in memory care, he won't, but honestly by then he'll have other problems to worry about.[/quote] Oh he's able to buy it himself or pay someone to get it for him, no problem. My concern is that he won't meet criteria for admission if he's an active alcoholic who would go into withdrawal if his supply is cut off. It would be a disaster if a nurse or orderly found his stash and poured it out.[/quote] Really? How would he react? I assume there must be a certain number of behavioral problems (of all sorts) among seniors.[/quote] There can be secure physical symptoms and even death from alcohol withdrawal. [/quote] This. It happened to a relative. [/quote]
