Thanks for making the situation clear. I was kinda reading that between the lines. Being a recovering alcoholic myself, I know first hand that you just can't help some people until they hit rock bottom and are ready to make the move on their own. If you've ever tried to tell an alcoholic they should stop drinking, you'll get every logic in the world of why drinking isn't thier problem. I had Dr's tell me my liver enzymes were elevated from alcohol abuse so I changed Dr's. It just takes some of us longer to hit that depth than it does others. Of course, there are a few that never make that decision until it's too late. Carl hasn't hit that wall yet.
Luv ya guys,
