Divorce Dilema

My AW has been a long term binge drinker. Even with several treatment programs she could not stay sober. Recently she was diagnosed as Bipolar 2. She is on meds and has become a different person, for the better. Acts normal, not drinking, and working the programs. Is actually plesant to be around for a change. She says it is because the meds have taken away the anxiety that she was self medicating for by binge drinking. Now here is my dilema. I had had enough and was in the process of filing for divorce. I didn't want a divorce but I was finished living with a drunk. For those that their A has found sobriety and you stayed together. How well were you able to repair your marriage? Could you move on or was their always a resentment? I have to decide soon if I am proceding with the divorce or putting things on hold and giving her a chance to prove that she is a new person. Neither option will be easy.
