I do think it would be good for you to arm yourself with knowledge about this disease that will always be something that he will have to deal with. Knowlege is power. Alcoholism is definitely a disease that brings some stark realities with it. Wise not to bury your head in the sand on this one.
I totally agree, I think having awareness & knowledge of what you are up against is crucial... and the ability to live life one day at a time. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst in a way, I guess? Early recovery is a challenge for both A's & codies alike, hang in there & remember to take care of YOU!
