    Update, Rick is two weeks with no alcohol! He is doing much better, is awake most of the day. He still has some confusion and odd behavior but he hasn't left the house in two weeks and I have been with him the whole time so I know he isn't drinking.

    we got our affairs in order a few years ago when this all started. What makes me so mad is that the doctors haven't come out and said this with me in the room, even though I am his power of attorney. I sadly know what his funeral arrangements are.

    So you have quite a load as well. I'm sorry. It is hard to understand how they cannot understand. I get the ones that see what they are doing but can't quit but I have shown him videos of how he gets. He says it is from the one time he took paxil

Doc says he needs more protein so for the last week I have been making meals for him and protein shakes ( the good kind, ice cream, raw eggs, muscle milk, and milk) in the morning.
