I know a lot of old timers who started out being coerced. If you are required to go to AA meetings 90 times over 90 days, you’ll have a good chance of recovery.

That comes dangerously close to violating the Constitutional ban on a state sponsored religion, don't you think? Even jail/prison inmates have the right to not attend religious services. Just what are steps 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 11, & 12 asking you to do?

Regards.

RE: Your dad’s skin; at Sally Beauty Supply they sell Triple-Lanolin skin lotion that might work for him. There will be an aloe vera skin lotion sold there too made by the same company.

Also, try to get him to eat salmon. You can buy reasonably-priced salmon at Wal-Mart Super Center. And then in the frozen juice section, get a bottle of Minute Maid lemon juice and cook it with that and with onion slices and some melted butter in the oven.

Prayers.

May the Lord protect, heal, lead, and bless this woman;
save her from the agonies of alcohol addiction;
sustain her husband and family;
bring them through this struggle safely;
increase their love for You and for each other;
lead them to find the counsel and professional help they need;
uphold them with the realization that they were made for joy.
Amen.

My father had a battle with alcohol he didn’t win. Liver cancer ended it.

Link to a wonderful song, Wine Into Water, written from the heart by country singer T Graham Brown. The words describe his own alcohol addiction which he defeated and the film clips are from the old Dallas tv show. Thought this version would be appropriate for this woman in need of our prayers.

Prayers for her family, especially her husband, that thye grow in wisdom and learns to know better ways to help her.
Prayers for healing that this problem has caused in their family, during and after recovery.

Guilt is part of this disease. That’s why he needs to attend Al-Anon.
