Who diagnosed the hepatitis in July, if it wasn't his doctor? Or are they simply projecting back and saying that must have been the problem back in July?

I had a partner (whom I later married--it only lasted a few months) who almost died of liver failure. They were certain he would need a transplant, but the biopsy showed only early cirrhosis in his case. Sadly, he went back to drinking.

I'm sorry to hear you already have the biopsy results.

One other suggestion. I gather he isn't in the hospital at the moment? Is he physically capable of making it to an AA meeting? If not, but he is willing to consider AA, you can then call the local AA Intergroup office, who could send a couple of guys out to talk to him at home.

Again, though, he has to be on board with it. They won't come out if he isn't willing to listen.

Just a thought.

My first husband (now sober 31 years) went to AA after a co-worker gave me the AA "Big Book" and I passed it along to him.
