I can't speak for Dict8, but IMO forcing the bottom to go to her means, letting her know you won't support her habit or enable her anymore. But everyone has to stick to that (as previously said) So instead of just letting rock bottom happen in time, you are bringing it to her. After that, she will have to want help before she will get help/ I do wish her the best. My grandpa was an alcoholic and his organs started shutting down. He would drink mouth wash or anything with alcohol that he could find, when he couldn't get beer or whatever

tough love.....sometimes you have to do it. Just keep in mind unless she wants help, she won't get it. But you can at least say you did all you could do.....that's how I think of it any way Yea, tough love, I've heard of it and talked with people and their children about it but not for a elderly woman. I had read a few years back about alcohol consumption had become a problem for seniors, and now wonder how many where she lives that you never see are or what they're doing.

She already has memory problems. At 81 this is to be expected, but her drinking is making her condition all the worse. It would be great if somehow Soy Lecithin oil (Phosphatidyl Choline) was integrated into her diet, as this would help both her liver and her memory, but unless someone lives with her that might be hard to do. Both the liver and the brain are made up of the same membranes so what helps one helps the other. |
