Alcoholism and Family
  
His wife has been ill but is on the mend
and is cooking her first lunch for the first time in months
All could have been well for the daughter
who suffers from the illness of alcoholism and it is getting worse.
He used to drink too when a ****** but can see
the difference between drunkenness and alcoholism.
He has confiscated the daughter's car key and can't keep
Alcohol at home (he likes a glass of wine in the evening.)
She refuses to go to Alcoholic anonymous but has agreed
to see a psychologist; she will tell lies and the good
shrinker will give her pills and tell her not to drink.
When her daughter is sober, she is a sweet, kind person
but intoxicated she turns into a devilish being who sometimes
try to strike her mother, she never tries to hit him, because of she
knows he will hit her knock out without punctuation.
All we can do for now is to hope she will understand her problem
and hope for the best.
