First of all can I offer my condolences for your loss and hope that your son and yourself continue to cope and support each other. I recently came across this forum whilst looking for answers/support as I too am struggling to help my alcoholic husband who’s is refusing medical interventions. I agree with you that alcoholics are much more than that person, my husband was/is a wonderful man who suffered the loss of his only daughter (my step daughter) in December last year and cannot cope with the pain of grief without his alcoholic crutch. I am watching him slowly deteriorate before my eyes and feel helpless as I can’t see a happy ending to all of this. I pray if the worst comes he also has a peaceful ending
