Oh, Janet, it hurts my heart that you and Ricky are having to go through this. Rick has made a life decision that is sooo destructive to him and his family. It's good that Ricky stood up to him. Even if it doesn't cause a change, it needed to be said for several reasons.

It did need to be said and now I think they've moved on. I hope Rick gets the help he needs and I hope Ricky knows that his Dad needed to hear it from him too.

Since Rick drinks so much it's not going to be an easy fix. To quit cold turkey would be almost impossible to do. He really needs to find some help.

So far so good. There have been 3 beers in the fridge ever since they had their 'moment' so not sure if he has stopped or not. No cans in the garage either. He's quit before for a short time and I believe Diana is right, he'll need to get help if he really wants to kick this.

He and Ricky still have their arguments, me....I just stay in my room out of the way. Thanks for asking Gayle.

I'm glad to hear that Janet. I hope he really has stopped. It's sure to make it better for everyone.

Thanks Gayle. It seems he has at least cut back, not sure what he does when he's not around us. He's been a bit grumpy, so maybe he hasn't had much to drink, I just don't know.
