But I know it is something that continues to harm him and that would sadden me. Whether we were attached or not.
Yes, in the same way he can still cause you pain. So let his sister plan the intervention. And try to remind yourself that there is NOTHING you can do or say that will affect his drinking. You've worked so hard on yourself, you've got the results to prove it... so why get involved again with a toxic person?

Here's my opinion, for what it's worth.

Letting Go and Intervention don't have to be mutually exclusive. IF participating in the intervention is the next right thing for you, and IF you can let go of the outcome, then do it. Two big IF's.
