I think I'm just looking for a reality check.

And... has anyone successfully reunited with an alcoholic spouse? How?
I think he's made it clear, he's going to keep drinking like a madman and there is nothing you can do about it. Yet will try therapy in a desperate attempt to verify why his alcohol abuse is ok.
Make a run for it
