Thanks for that post. Please be sure to keep your own house in order and "do the deal" every day -- we want to keep you in the "SOBER Recovery" family!
It is quite sad when friends continue to torture themselves, isn't it? There is a guy who comes to meetings all the time drunk as a skunk. We both have the same sponsor, and my sponsor knows he can only help this guy if he wants help.
Keep praying for your friend and you are right on -- these are lessons we need to learn!
Glad you are sober and with us on SR!
