A different type of post from me. My Brother in Law has a real alchohol problem which has been exasperated as his Mother has gone into nursing care. This was a source of income along with his employment.

I am trying to get him to realise he has a problem and there is help out there for him. Deep down he knows he is addicted.

I have spoken directly to him and to his family doctor who has written to him and asked if he would call in, no result. In denial obviously.

Should I start to leave literature about but he has heard it all before.

We are at the stage where the fridge is empty but he can phone me from the pub under the influence. How he gets up for work next day is beyond me.

Any ideas???????????????????
