Doing A Family Tree/Twisted

Disease or not it seems to be passed on somehow. Funniest story was an uncle, drunk having sex, not with aunt. Heart attack. rushed by ambulence which wrecked. He was thrown out and run over. Booze will get you. It seems to be all on my dad's side so is it nature or nurture. Just interesting. I don't know.

Is that a true story? Or a joke?

Problem drinking runs in my family at least 4 generations backwards , my great-great grandfather pawned my great-grandfathers school uniform for drink so he missed out on some vital exams in the late 1800's .

I had a guy in a meeting one day say..."They shook my family tree and all the alcoholics fell out....The only thing left was the stump."

Me too me too! My maternal great grandfather made his own White Lightnin' and that's where my mom grew up, her parents having died in a drunk driving incident. Then there's my paternal grandfather, who owned a bar which is where my dad grew up.

"I went back to my mother, I said I'm crazy ma, help me...she said
I know how it feels son, cuz it runs in the family"
Quadrophenia

Just one big happy dysfunctional family. Hugs to everyone!
