Subject: Very helpful site

I just wanted to say that your article on "Living with Alcoholism" was the most informative article on the subject I have ever read. I know several people who are alcoholics and I just didn't get it. I had such a hard time understanding the "why" it's such a problem for them. I would think to myself, their lives have been ruined at one time or another by alcohol so how come they keep doing it?

Your article gave me a much deeper understanding and I'm thankful you took the time to research this and help us who don't have an addiction to alcohol understand the problems the alcoholic person faces. I'm hoping that now I can show more patience and understanding, but also encourage them that there is help. I had no idea the physical and emotional problems that could occur to an alcoholic if they quit drinking on their own. This was very valuable information.

Glad I found your site. I will be checking back often.
Thank-you,
