You have made the switch that many of us have struggled with. You can't protect and save her. You CAN protect and save your self and your children.
With out her alcoholism weighing you down 24/7, you will gain strength and clarity, I did. You are your kids savior and their hero. You should be very proud. From one single dad to another, good job.
Thanks and God bless us all,
