: unbeknowst to me till the other day that my mom broke the news to me,my dad has started drinkin again..several months of sobriety..he had a nice job..was keepin busy..all seemed well..and for some reason he started drinking again.
: my mother did not want me to say anything about this..but i dont feel that people can properly pray for someone unless they have an idea of whats goin on..
: my dad is an alcholic..its been a ruff life for me..its not fair..its been a think i have had to deal with all my life..and those of you who are fortunate enough to not know what its about clearly dont know how horrible and devastating it is.
: well all i am asking for is prayer..not for me..for my dad...this is a post for my dad..
: and i just have been numbed by this whole ordeal..i dont know what to think about it..i almost feel hopeless..
: its hard..and i just would like for those who can to pray.
: its not for me..its for dad.
Of course it's for you, too.
I know what it is like to love and alcoholic Raul.
I will be praying for all of you.
Just remember God is watching out for your dad, I know he was taking care of my husband when he was drinking, you need to let your mom know you are there for her also. I am here if you need to talk.
