Shocking

Well if I wasn't already committed to staying sober I certainly am never going to see alcohol as an option again! My sisters liver started to lack up on Thursday(I'm sitting in the ward with her now). She was bright yellow-her eyes virtually shining yellow. Bruises all over her with purple veins everywhere and a classic red skin rash. Then she started to withdraw I had to phone in sick as she was out of her mind! A bit calmer with me there so the doctor asked I stay so me and my mum and Nhs one to one in shifts. My dad died of Alzheimer's she was worse than him on a really bad day. Hallucinating and paranoid she was so abusive! I will never want to touch a drop again. I hope when she's at the end of the detox she feels the same. Also lost a friend to alcohol in November. What's scary is all are middle class professionals in suburbia!
