Daughter-in-Law at crisis


Our Son is at his wits end after 4 years of his wife's alcoholism, and 2 full rehabs, support groups, drug treatment etc etc She has lost jobs, fallen down stairs, broken her ankle, police called because she had fallen inside porch and on and on.

Then she was doing really well before xmas, had gone totally yellow and warned she would die if she drank again. and went to her Mothers in North Norway for 3 weeks over the xmas /new year, (they don't drink at all) he picked her up and she was sober!!! He came home from work the next day and she had got vodka from local shop, she was out cold, this happened almost every day. they have a dog and she has been on the floor with front door open, nothing at all done in house her packing still not done He has been working hard, shopping, walking the dog and doing all household chores, cleaning her up.

We are all so worried for him he is so stressed and daren't take off any more time at work, He wants her to go to her mother or an extended period but she is too ill to travel at the moment. She is refusing help but has liver scan appts and support group etc etc.
