It looks to me like you've taken a big step towards letting go by facing your worst fear with him: death. At my daughter's first detox, the therapist there told me to go ahead and imagine all my worst fears and how I would respond to them. 'How' determined the direction I should take for myself. Since my mind ran the gamut and I was still alive and kicking, I had tools for survival. It was up to me to find more or better ones and use them every day.
Try asking yourself what else you fear with him and then picture how you will survive it. We're victims or survivors of their disease, but the choice is entirely ours and it demands action.
Prayers for your serenity, Callie.
