I'm going to attend an Al-Anon meeting next week (it's Friday here and the next one is Monday by the looks of it).
Good for you on attending Alanon! I have to confess, it tugs really hard at my heart when I read of someone who has a parent in active alcoholism. I am so grateful that I was given the gift of sobriety, and both of my grown daughters know me sober.
I originally got sober in 1986, but started drinking again in 1990. Thank God I was only out there for two miserable months, and I finally drug myself up that long flight of steps to my home group to start over.
I am so sorry for your pain, hon.
