Well done you.
He was twitching and sweating during the arbitration itself - I think probably at the outside limits of how long he can go without a drink. I hope a miracle happens and he sobers up, but unfortunately I don't see any positive signs. On the contrary, his cycle of crash&burn->contrite&"recovering"->return to drinking -> crash&burn is getting worse.
