I questioned him regarding that when he spoke about detox like it was a prison. I'm not sure if he's ready, but bit should he be... Almost an entire bottle of vodka a day! I guess my main concern was that he would try to do it in his own anyway, with or without someone to monitor his intake. I told him I tried with disastrous results... He seems confident he can do it. Probably more evidence he's not truly ready to quit. :-/
