Thank you for sharing stellar. This is progressive disease for sure. It will stop at nothing to kill you. It will attack every organ in you're body. You're liver will eventually shut down then you die. Here's my point. You're able to see the progression of this disease and by doing so you can use simple logic to stop it. We as alcoholics have to recognize the pattern associated with the disease. It gives us a crystal ball so to speak to see what will become if we continue consuming alcohol. I personally think this is a valuable tool in beating this terrible disease known as alcoholism.
Just don't drink. It does get easier as time goes on. Then it becomes a wonderful gift. Sobriety will treat you like a king. You just have to choose it. It's that simple.
