Chad, I had many many of these conversations with my husband in the early stages of this disease. He would listen, tell me exactly what I wanted to hear and then drink again when he thought he had been good enough to deflect my concerns. He would cry crocodile tears, express remorse and be so wonderful that I would tell myself the problem was gone. Please know she may lie to you and may say anything to get you to focus on something else.

I wish you all the best, keep posting and learning
