My eldest neice knows im alcoholic she is 21 we have had the odd conversation about it but i only talk if she mentions it as i know it is difficult for her as all of her aunts and uncles are in recovery
She has asked what are the chances of it happening to me before and i told her there is genetic evidence but really it can happen to anyone i always say be careful etc i dont try to put it on her but if she asks i try to do my best with what i know
