[QUOTE]the in-laws, my mother, and AH (who eventually came over) decided that our marriage was worth saving.[/QUOTE
When your mother and your inlaws want to be married to an alcoholic, they have the right to make that decision for themselves.
They have no right to make that decision for you.
I'm glad you're separating for two months. The good thing is, that means you will be safe. And I hope you will take the time to find an Al-Anon group, and hang out here. Because you need to take care of yourself. And two months is enough time to figure out a good exit strategy.
I've been slapped on the wrist here before for encouraging people to leave. I don't always. But I'm glad you see the danger, and recognize that it was the wall this time but you're not sure it's not going to be you next time. That feeling of self-preservation that made you pack your bag and go to you mom's house might very well save your life. Listen to that voice.
And lots of hugs for you.
