Years ago, my family did an intervention with my alcoholic uncle. My uncle agreed to go to treatment with the intervention specialist. He left 2 weeks later....he died 2 years later. He never "got it"- his brother, my other uncle who has been in the program for 25 years- says now that he believes some people will never get it- that isn't their path. Good luck to you if you decide to move forward...they work for some people.
