Long time lurker. DSis is an alcoholic. It has completely taken over our lives. Was "bad" for a few years but the last 15 months things have really escalated. 2 different rehabs(18 weeks total), unlimited support, love, loyalty. Now we are at the stage of social workers, barristers, and unexplained injuries(broken wrist that she has no memory of). It's feeling very hopeless now. I feel like we're nearing the final descent. What a horrible cruel senseless disease.
