Dreamygirl, Thank you for posting your story. As you can see, I just recently got an order of protection against my AH and we will be divorcing very shortly. He also has alcoholic liver disease, although no varices yet, just some fibrosis but no cirrohsis, and I can't just sit around and be there for him anymore. Your post and story centers me in what I already know, but sometimes refuse to admit or don't want to admit. Thanks.
