The brother-in-law is sober now. Since he arrived, he's been sitting on the sofa. Sometimes watching TV. Mostly contemplating his life.

Why does he want to drink... why is he driven to drink, even when he is past the point where he has lost his job, where his drinking is causes serious health problems? Why does he need someone there to stop him from drinking more?

That's an Age Old Question...... !!! Why... somewhere there is an answer.... might not be ours to ask though... might be his to answer privately

I agree with Tommy's comment. I have a Son in a Sober Living House right now, he's trying once again to kick his Addictions, we are Hopeful he will succeed this time, he wants to... I think all Addictions have to be a heavy Cross to bear and certainly the collateral damage to Loved Ones is something any of us in their Orbit have dealt with. Virtual Hugs.
