  • We all make choices in life and we ALL have to live by them. No exceptions. That being said alcoholism is a terrible disease, just because he's nit drinking doesn't mean the disease isn't still manifesting itself in other areas. Read Bill W's story.

    • Yeah, my mother in law has spent lots of time in Alanon since we split. I did realise the alcoholism is a disease and I was willing to support him and work the program with him. I quit drinking when he did and I was always an open ear. Is being abusive part of an alcoholics disease then? Will they stop doing it just by working the program? My gut tells me no but I'm still interested to find out what others have to say.
