Honey,<p>Didn't want your post to get buried, so thought I put out a new post to you. Are you still going to alanon, are you doing any counciling, and are you getting any other help for you?<p>Not sure where you are at with your marriage and I sure do understand that you all love your husband, but one thing to remember about alcholism is that it is a disease and you have to treat the person that has it like you would anyone else with a disease. If your husband had diabeties (sorry I cant spell) and he liked to it cake, would you accept his eating cake even if it was going to kill him? You can't stop your husband from drinking, but you can face up to his disease and realize that by helping your self (ie going to alanon) you might be able to help your husband much more then just accepting where you are at. Facing the disease does not necessaryly mean you are bailing out on the marriage, it means you care enough about it to realize that were it is going is not healthy. My thoughts for what they are worth, but please get some professional help if you aren't now.<p>God's strength and much patience to you.
