Thank you. I think it is good to watch these documentaries as reminders. I watched part of it and will have to watch the rest later. Sad!

Wow. Thanks for posting this. I watched it in two parts today and I cried a number of times. I didn’t think I was so bad, but my behaviour is so similar to Mark’s. Truly frightening.

I had never heard of it. I have set myself a reminder to watch it tonight at home.

This link doesn't work for me for whatever reason.. what movie are you discussing? I've been interested in watching some material on alcoholism.

It’s a documentary that’s filmed about an hour and a half from where I grew up, it’s called rain in my heart

I've just watched this and it's really powerful. ☹
I'm day 1............again but after seeing this I won't drink today, and tonight am going to listen to one of my audible books.
Thanks for posting the link mummy

Thank you for posting this Mummy. I sat and watched the whole programme this afternoon. Very powerful and so very sad.
it shows what a truly progressive illness alcoholism is.
I think that Vanda also passed away in 2010. I dont know what happened to Mark though.
