Dear Amy: I am a recovering alcoholic, currently celebrating seven years of sobriety.
I am a recovering alcoholic, currently celebrating seven years of sobriety.Advertisement
Between Brett and the mother, they take turns every other weekend watching Emily. They hope for the best during the week.However, it’s undeniable that no amount of “saving” is going to help this woman. She needs professional help! Both of these people love Emily, but the ripple effect of her alcoholism has reached a tipping point.Should I say to Brett: “Give me a call when she’s in detox/rehab?”You state that these enablers may not understand the negative power of alcohol.
They do not have the power to save Emily. Enabling at this level really is “playing God.” Imagine if Emily had landed in court-mandated rehab as a result of one of her drunken car accidents? She might be celebrating her own sobriety by now. However, their personal hygiene is poor, as is their diet, and they are not physically active, which has caused them to put on weight.Our hope was that by exercising regularly and trying to eat well we were being good role models.
