My Uncle's Wild Week
My uncle relapsed after losing his job last week and he just went plum out of his mind drinking left and right.
I saw him on Monday and he was cradling a bottle of 750 ML whiskey. The next day, he came back asking to borrow a lawn mower and I went went him to Home Depot. On the way back, he purchased another bottle of Whiskey.
On Wednesday, he ask me to come over for a little Uncle to nephew chat and he broke open another new bottle of Whiskey. 3 whiskey already between Monday and Wednesday.
I told him to slow it down. He was binge drinking and feeling good about something. There was a knock at the door. I went to answer it and by golly, I saw the two prettiest blond girls in my life. They came in and we had a little chat about this and that.
It turns out they were strippers (obviously) .
Thursday rolled around and my uncle went to some bar during the afternoon and got drunk and then he walked all the way to my house without realizing he left his car back at the bar.
Friday was the craziest. He said he was going to Vegas. I knew I had to come along. I drove him all the way to Vegas and I kept my eyes on him the entire time. He drank and played the slot and blackjack and passed out in bed.
We came back home Saturday evening and he demanded I take him to buy some more Whiskey. I did everything I could to stop him but I couldn't. I had to buy it for him or else he would be driving around there by himself.
I spent the night the house making sure he doesn't leave. He passed out drunk.
Today, Sunday, He woke up with a headache and we went out to eat. He ordered a glass of Margarita. Later, fetched himself a six pack.
Sigh. I will never leave him. I will continue to stay by and watch him. He's asleep right now.
I'm actually dumping out half a bottle of Whiskey and filling it with apple juice. He isn't going to like it but I'm determined to help my uncle.
I was a heavy drinker myself but I stopped awhile back.

Hope your uncle gets it right. Help him as you have helped yourself. The best way is to engage him probably on a more productive activity that would help him get away and release his energy without any bottle of whiskey.
