There again, he wouldn't be an alcoholic if therer were dangers of him relapsing and drinking again.

I have all kinds of respect..and pity really...for people who do want to quit but can't. However the girl I know has totally blackened my view tbh. She openly admits she will never try to get off it as she enjoys it, she has told nurses, consultants, everyone in the hospital that she has no intention of stopping drinking, yet they continue to waste money, time and resources on her when others who actually do want to help themselves are made to wait years for treatment. That in my eyes is completely wrong.
