My absolute best to your family.
She must first realize she has has a real problem, and not just "lip service" to get you off her back. Then once she knows a definite problem exists she must want sobriety. Chances are if she is cushioned continually, that reason to get sober might be delayed a LONGGGGG time.
And YES, people do recover and there are happy endings.
