anyone out there sick and tired of living with an Alcholic?

Question by sunshine: anyone out there sick and tired of living with an Alcholic?
this is a long story. been living with this around 16 years. hes been thro. rehab centers, commited for alcholosim. been to jail 2 for relaited alcholosim. and still wants to drink. promisies that hes quit. the next thing you know he’s slipped and bought alchol. last time went to jail for abuse. how do you make them stop. im to the point if i had the money and was able to work. id pack my belongings and run as far as i can. but under the circumstances, i have fatail cancer and cant pay all the bills. since hes irresponsible and never paid a bill in his life, no one would give him credit. so therefor everything is in my name. he quit his job right at the time i had my 2nd treatment of chemo and has’nt worked since. cobra insurance ran out and he too has health problems. but no he wont even try to get a job just to have insurance. i feel as if im having to be his baby sitter and his provider. when in return i feel as if he should be taking care of me. my family dislikes him for all this
so what can i do to want him to change. is there any hope. hes a good guy until he begains drinking.

Have an intervention. Give him the ultimatum that he is not allowed in your house unless he gets treatment. If everything is in your name and he has no job what is he really contributing?
