I'm sorry that you and your family are going through all this. Alcohol doesn't just affect the alcoholic--it is a family disease. The disease has taken over and is winning the battle right now--where your mother is concerned. She is a sick person. I know it is hard to see her/deal with her right now--all you can do is pray for her. Only God can change the human heart--the want to change must come from within. Just know that it is not your fault that she drinks. My thoughts/prayers are with you. :praying
