I haven't read one yet on this site, or anywhere else for that matter. The only success story I know of is my aunt and uncle (recovered alcoholic). They're both in their mid to late 70's and I can't remember now how long he's been sober. About 30 years, I think? Anyway, he always left when he went on a bender and came home when he was done for the time being. She raised their kids with a very strong support system (family and church), but she's the one that financially supported them. She worked the entire time and up until a few years ago.

Please consider getting face to face support in Alanon or Naranon. Work the recovery program you wish he would.
