A very very good friend of mine (who was actually in recovery with my father, he himself is a recovering alcoholic of 5 years woo hoo!) suggested the same thing to me. If it were him he said he would ask his spouse to show him 90 days. This is something I am still leaving in consideration but it won't do any good now since my husband clearly does not want help at this point.
