[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kind of drinking that causes this early death is basically at least a fifth plus a bottle of Mad Dog or 6-pack a day, more like a half gallon per day on weekends, without stop. No days off. Dawn to dusk, you drink. For 30 years. I know - my parents did this the whole time I was growing up and passed away when I was about 30. [/quote] It doesn't have to be everyday. I know two people who died form alcoholism and while they were life long alcoholics, they had long dry stretches and they would get healthier, get jobs, live in stable housing...until something sent them into a downward spiral again and the non stop drinking would start again. I have no idea about what kind of impact the daily drinking versus the year long binges interspersed with sober years does. Maybe all the same in the end. [/quote]
