Oh bless both of you,my heart goes out to you both,having your childhood ruined by alcohol and a parent who just can’t say no. Well my story ive been to my beautiful, funny 52 year old cousins funeral today.And thanks to alcohol which caused liver failure 3 weeks ago, apparently she was told 2 years ago by the doctor to stop drinking but I guess she thought it would never happen to her.im very spiritual and believe I the afterlife and angels exactly the same as she did so I don’t tend to cry at funerals.But today I sobbed like a baby,watching my uncles and cousins carry her in,watching my mom who’s 78, checking on her baby brother ( who’s in his late 60s but my cousins dad) watching her son come back from Australia travelling and reading his memories and sobbing.just heart breaking, too many families grieving because of alcohol xxx
