What a long and painful road you've had. SR is full of so much support, I've gained so much here. Stick around, keep reading, keep posting. There are some really great reads in the stickies at the top.

You can be the best father you can be. You can focus on yourself and how to raise four healthy, happy, loving, safe, secure children. I also have four young kids and I know the task is daunting but you can do it. Your post is full of pain and tragedy but it also shows some amazing strength.

You can begin by attending alanon meetings. There is a way to gain control of your life. There are things you can do. Alanon will help you find out how. SR will support you. Learning about co-dependency and alcholism will give you tools and facts to move forward. Your wife will make her own choices. You don't have any power over them.
