In limbo
About two weeks ago, I told my AB of 4 years that I was leaving him and was (obviously) taking our seven month old daughter with me. I have been fighting his alcoholism for too long, and just don't have the desire to deal with it any longer. I refuse to put my daughter through what I have been through. I don't have to tell any of you the kind of hell I live in each day. It was decided that I would leave in the begining of June. The wait being I had to sort out details like finances and registering for school, and finding a place to go. It turns out that I will be able to spend a couple of months with my parents until I can get on my feet.
In the meantime, we are still living together and for the most part are acting like business as usual. Today he had a doctors appointment about a blood test he had taken three weeks ago.( A little background here...My A was also addicted to Perc's and his Dr. has been trying to wean him off by prescribing some type of morphine. Makes no sense to me, but that's what was happening. Anyways, he was on this weaning off " program " for about two months up till now)The day my AB took the blood test he had taken perc's that morning. So he knew the Dr was going to give him ****. He let me come into the office with him today( a miracle) so I could hear what was happening. It turned out that the doctor told him he was through. That he needed to get real help. The Dr said he wasn't going to help him with his pills anymore because my AB's blood test came back with not only the Perc's in his system, but almost at the legal limit for alcohol. This blood test had been taken at 10 in the morning. My AB had been drinking until the wee hours of that same morning. And yet, he was still almost at the legal limit of intoxication when he came to the appt. The doctor said it was enough. We spent about 45 minutes in the office with the Dr saying my AB had to go into rehab. His liver enzymes were through the roof as well. Anyways, long story short, when we got home my AB told me he would do it. I couldn't believe it, and I still really can't. But he made the call to the rehab center and they were busy and said they would call him back. So now what do I do? I feel that if I stay that I will just end up disappointed again and am just putting off the inevitable. But in the other hand, do I not owe it to him and to myself to see him through this if he does decide to make an effort? I know no one can tell me what to do, but hearing some opinions would really help me out.
