Hi MG,
Lexie is so right - he's not able to feel gratitude right now. Nor is he able to appreciate all the efforts of those around him. When I was with my AH in the hospital, I slept there most days on a cot, the staff was AMAZING and always wanting to find comfort for me, coffee, food, etc. My AH - was terrible,wanted to leave, went toe-to-toe with me demanding his clothes, and only settled down when he thought the cops came (hospital security). If he would have walked out - our insurance would not have paid the bill. We feel these feelings but the alcoholics cannot - not right now.
I know how tough it is to be in your shoes right now. Can you get him into an inpatient treatment program? The docs and I made my husband go directly from the hospital to treatment. It's the best 3+ weeks he could have right now. If he's truly waiting for a transplant - he must remain sober.
As always ... thinking of you and wishing you comfort and peace!!
