Cirrhosis: Alcoholism is a terrible condition. Contact alanon for advice. For your husband, if you can get him to go to a clinical psychologist they may be beneficial. Sympathize with your dilemma, but he has had a lifetime to try and correct this. Good luck, .

I'm sorry: There is not. I would do anything within my power to change this. Forgive me as you must forgive him. If you have not joined al anon, full of people in your situation, and/or considered a short course of psychotherapy to make you comfortable with yourself and what you can do to make life better for yourself and the other people you meet on you road through life, please consider these steps.
