Oh David, you are having a rough ride at the moment.
James father is an alcoholic, non drinking now for 5 years.His mother before him was and she has been dry for 20 years.
I know only too well the humiliating and stinging barbs of the drinking alcoholic. If it's any consolation people usually just feel sorry for the recipient.
I ended up not going anywhere with my ex. or having people round, it was way too cringe making. I never thought he would stop drinking and indeed he did not until everyone, his mother included had gone the tough love route. He became isolated apart from his alcoholic cohorts.
You should do the tough love thing, otherwise if you try to accommodate her, you do her no favours.

I have no idea how my mother in law found the courage to throw her son out, but she did. Maybe because she had reached her own rock bottom some years previously and knew it was the only way.

If the whites of her eyes are turning yellow, then she is jaundiced which in turn means her liver is in trouble. The liver is remarkable in its ability to regenerate but only for so long.
Your sister needs help, but unfortunately it can not come from you.The very first impetus for change has to be hers,no one else can do it.
Please for your own sanity and happiness, put your foot down and under no circumstances feel guilty about it. You are a lovely sweet man and have been so kind to me.Do not let your sister maneuver you into a corner.If a mother can turn her back on her son, to help him get well, you can with your sister.Trite but true, sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.
I am sending cyber hugs winging your way.

Thank you honey!

And thanks for the hugs. I needed them.

I'm so sorry you've had some similar experiences in your family.

this is REALLY spooky....

I am scared to even SAY it..

November 10, 1996
In most cases of Spontaneous Human Combustion, the victim is burnt to death. However, in at least one case the combustion was minor enough to ensure the survival of the victim. A professor of mathematics at the University of Nashville, Tennessee who is known only as Mr. "H" was walking home on a winter's day in 1835 when he felt a sharp pain in his left leg. When he looked down, he observed that a flame several inches high was spouting from his leg. He managed to extinguish the flame by cupping his hands around it. The burn on his leg took an unusually long time to heal.

Do you really believe that? How does one suddenly up and burst into flames like that?

Maybe it is a combination of what they are wearing (cologne, purfume, etc) and the atmospheric conditions at the time.

It doesn't happen very often, do it? It is very rare. But I think it DOES happen from time to time. I am pleased this person survived it.

Now I'm scared to flick my bick! I might go up in smoke!
