Question by purplesportygirl883: what is the end stages of alcoholism?swelling legs,multiple gallstones and a cyst was found on the kidney?
My x-husband is a drinker. Only God knows when his time is up but I have two girls I need to prepair. If anyone has gone through this please help…he has multiple gallstones now and they will not take the gallbladder out because they said his liver is to bad. The surgery would be at high risk to do. He is swelling up exspecially his legs. My daughter also noticed his nose was bleeding alittle too. When does the body start to shut down? What are some signs? Thank You!
