Hi Waiting

Despite your co-dependence (which we all show symptoms from time to time)

(dahh that's why we are here)

You seem to have good head on your shoulders.

IMO- just keep in mind - your need to support him throught "this" is YOUR need. He doesn't need you - his support will come fom the other recovering A's in those meetings.

That is a hard realtity for us, but it's true.

If you have the opportunity to separate yourself from him- I think you should do so.

If he recovers completely and wants to get back, well... take it from there.

If you have been reading you'll see that that alcoholism is extremely selfish. And you will be banging your head against the walls trying to figure why he is the way he is.

IMO give him his space and do some soul searching of your own.

Welcome and keep posting
