Your first duty is to make sure you are completely sober and mentally stable before you get into a relationship, let alone expect to be around a child.
I'm sorry you're hurting (and sorry to Dee if this falls under his hated "tough love" category), but the child should always come first. But as a guy whose wife left him and took his 3 year old daughter because of his drinking, trust me on this.
