    but I cannot and will not judge anyone.. I was really brave a few years back,, instead of seeking real life friends. Id drink a bottle o whiskey a night ! and I would sit here and whinge to faceless people. I have learned that I may not have the millions of friends I once assumed I did..I have dozens .. :) in fact..3 :)

    I was a lost soul..

    happy , happy , joy joy.. as rem and stimpy once said..

    I know, that when alcohol dependency reaches the last stage, an individual would most definitely have liver failure and other organ failure and would be in hospital, having palliative care, to make their last days comfortable, in the last days of their life. Meanwhile, I base my onions on what I have personally witnessed over the past three years and not based on online tittle tattle. *shrug*

    Oh dear I could well comment on this but best not.

    Comment all you like reason, this isn’t personal is it. It’s not a competition. If you can persuade me differently with facts, I will happily change my own opinion. If you can’t, what’s your point?

    Odd then, that in the last days of my fathers life, he received it. Although I accept your point and am happily corrected if that is the case.

    You talk about organ failure as if it’s a death sentence, it isn’t.

    I know the full onset of alcoholism when organ failure is now a real a issue, if that individual continues drinking, is a death sentence. No ifs or buts. I should have made my point clearer, apologies.

    Yes and usually the only way of them getting alcohol is if someone gets it for them, think this is where this all started.

    maybe a different form.. palliative usually means life threatening.. I can and WILL tell ya a real life story.. ya settled :) I was born with the most unusual blood disorder..chronic lymphoedema. meaning I swelled up in places.. Was horrendous as a child, as it was facial..I think I turned to punk as I was so ugly. I just felt Stared at all me life,, so probably gave them something to look at.. went to the royal marsden on the Fulham road and various hospices for bandaging(MLD) and varying flotron machines, for pressure.. THEN… wait for it,, this has a punchline, honest.. I found out that here. In Dundee,, they have a well known lymphoedema clinic.. all excited I called them up..but they refuse to see me as I have not had Breast cancer !! its a weird bastarding thing..

    och well.. ya gotta laugh eh?

    Moon hasn’t had organ failure, she lives a mobile life, a relatively normal life outside of alcohol consumption, she eats, she shops, she visits relatives, they visit her. etc etc. Moon binge drinks and not every day. A functioning alcoholic. Based on her own words, not mine.

    First post I have ever read on these boards in the number of years I have been here, that actually shows genuine concern for her, so excuse my cynicism when people now offer advice years after she has been guzzling booze while logged into JC. I am sure her own family and children, her own GP, are well aware of the problems if, they have not been JC exaggerated.

    What would adults on an over 40’s forum, who have lived full lives themselves, know about anything. A world where fact and fiction become blurred and repeated enough times until it becomes a reality. *shrug*

    Gerry will all due respect, you’re wrong. I know a damn sight more than I’d like too.

    Batty, again with all due respect, I have read what Patschatters have typed to Moon and on this site, I can’t recall if it involved you or not on Pats but I do know this much, I stay out of that vileness where possible and I am not going to patronize her now, on these boards. No one deserves the treatment she has received in my opinion, when a simple iggy instantly resolves the issue. In the same token alcoholics will subconsciously create conflict, in order to prop up their habit. I have personally tried to help Moon over a number of months and got nowhere, but I have moved on.

    That is all and I won’t comment again on this subject as it obviously creates unnecessary conflict.

    *sigh*
