That first paragraph and the second short line Express EXACTLY how I felt when I lost someone close to me, but I couldnt put it into words. Reading that paragraph brought it all back to me in a heartbeat. <br />And alcoholism....yes....a shockingly destructive addiction! I said goodbye to someone very dear to me at the time, about five years ago, because I could not deal with the cruel words that came from him when he was drinking. I wanted with all my heart to help him, but eventually came to the realisation that an alcoholic cannot be helped unless they WANT to be helped. It is a sickness....a disease....something that often no amount of love can cure. Keep writing Angelina.....your words are sensitive and beautiful.....

This blog piece was written for people in mind who are with a love one who is struggling with addiction. Often they don't think about how their behavior affects those closes to them. I agree, they should not be left alone with their addiction.

It reminds me of a post you wrote ...Very touching!<br />It reminds me of a post you wrote some two - three years ago about someone in your family who fell very ill because of her addiction to alcohol. I don't remember an update to that post. I do remember I was curious whether she made it, if she overcame illness and addiction, but I was afraid to ask.<br /><br />Anyway, alcoholism is a terrible addiction and it afflicts many people in many countries. There should be a solution to this; people should not be left alone in their struggle against this addiction. DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.com
