Hi, I am so sorry to hear of your situation. I know exactly what you are going through as I went through literally the same thing, except with my Dad. My Dad knew he had a problem and admitted it to myself, my sister and my mum but when he went to see counsellor/doctors/AA he just used to say he was getting better and lied to them as he was actually getting worse. My Dad used hide his drink everywhere, I asked him to come and live with me but had to ask him to leave as it was just too much. I was there 110% for my Dad and tried my hardest but unfortunately it wasn’t good enough. I write in past tense because my Dad passed away in April this year. I felt I needed to write to you to let you know you’re not alone and I hope the same doesn’t happen to your Mum. I would suggest sticking by her no matter what, then at least you have peace of mind if the worst does happen. My story is on here if you wanted to share it with her, I found that my Dad thought he was invincible, when he wasn’t, maybe if you’re Mum sees it’s actually damaging to her health and alcohol does kill she will have a change of heart. I know once alcohol takes over it’s hard to get rid of and is an illness which doesn’t really get that much attention and help unless alcoholics beg for it. By the way, my Dad was 44 when he passed so I would urge her to maybe seek rehab/a wet home. I’m here to talk if you need to x
