Dear Road,

I do not have expertise in this area as it was my father that was an alcoholic and my son an addict. I just wanted to mention that one of the happiest women I met in AlAnon was living w/her active alcoholic husband. I wanted to ask her to be my sponsor, but another very dear friend in the group had asked her to be her sponsor so I changed my mind. But she is a very respected, serene woman - so it "may" be possible for some people to detach w/love and still stay married to their alcoholic spouse. I don't think I could do it.

I hope you find guidance, experience, strength and hope at the meeting your attending.

p.s.
I wanted to add that my AlAnon meeting was Friday nights and I've got to say, that is one of the GREATEST ways to spend Friday nights!
