Aww, Beck. Sending a big hug to you down there. Addiction is such a terrible thing. That’s a great pic of you and your dad. I hope he knew how great you are.

Addiction runs in my mom’s family. Her brother passed of an OD when he was 32. Younger than I am now. It is crazy when I realize that. I am someone who likes to go out and have some cocktails and whoop it up and I have thought many times about shadow of alcoholism that hangs over some people.

I know your dad would be very proud of you and your girls…and of the words you shared with us here today.

I’m crying for you babe. It truly is a disease. I’m so sorry for the anger, heartache and the what if’s. I am glad that you do know he would’ve given it up if he could for all of you because that I believe. I love you. xo

I’ve never commented before, but I enjoy your blog very much. I feel for you so much about the situation with your dad. I have a brother who is an alcoholic and I get so frustrated that he just won’t stop even though it’s hurthing him and us so much. We lost an uncle at the age of 26 because of this disease and our two grandpas were also alcoholics, so I do believe it is a family disease. You are right; they would stop if they could. They don’t want this for themselves. Keep remembering all of the good that was in your dad. <3
