Do we ask about their recovery?
I have no idea if AH is going to AA meetings or not. He had his epiphany while in Vegas last week but I think the whole thing with the dog really threw all of us for a loop. What is my role if he chooses recovery and do I actually ask if he's going to meetings or do I just leave him alone and let him find his own way?
OK: I guess I know the answer to that, but it drives me crazy because I feel like I was invited to the table for this. I get invited to his conversations about going to AA but then am I not allowed to ask, "How's it going with meetings? Have you found a sponsor?" So, I know that I'm supposed to mind my own business and let his recovery be his recovery but at what point do I gently make conversation about it? Or is the subject just considered taboo in alcoholic homes? Sometimes I think it's easier BEFORE they proclaim they want to go to AA, at least then you know to keep your expectations low.
