I read over some of your other posts concerning this co-worker. It appears that her condition is not improving. Alcoholism is progressive. It will get worse.

I recommend you take steps to detach from your co-worker. There are some excellent posts in our stickies (permanent posts at the top of this forum) on the subject of detachment. There are also some posts on setting boundaries to protect yourself from someone else's addiction.

You can offer your co-worker the number for AA.
You can offer your co-worker the location for AA meetings.
You can offer your co-worker the schedule for AA meetings.

The rest is up to your co-worker.
