I will offer.
He completed a month-long in-patient rehab stint last year and began drinking again very soon after that. He has said repeatedly that it didn't work for him.
Still - if he is sincere in his fear of continued drinking, I would think that a structured environment would be a welcome option.
Thank you for this thought.
