I know Gerry, I am so looking forward to having him home in a safe environment, and not only because it's safe. I miss him, even though we talk each day by messenger or Skype it's just the knowing he is here in the house where I can reach out and hug him.

I can't help but feel for BIL.

Darn right DB should be proud of himself. He's got enough Valium to get him home on the flight and has a psych appointment the following day.

And, of course, you do as well .

You are correct; your DIL is in complete denial. No person that drinks and as addicted as she is will ever be able to drink like "normal" people do.

I'm sure DB is looking forward to coming home. The lifelong commitment is and will always be a part of DB's recovery.
