Quote From: ramairAlcoholism is high on Dr Phil's list of marital deal-breakers. If Kevin
is an alcoholic, especially if he's in denial, there's no sense in saving this mockery of a marriage. Hasn't he dragged Shauna low enough already?
Two questions:
Are your married?
Is your child terminally ill?
If your answer to either if these is no, then you are ignorant to the situation and really should not speak. If you think that your marriage would not be strained by watching a person you love more than anything suffer (potentially at your hand while performing a procedure, and potentially with them in a state that they don't know why they hurt, just that they hurt - have you ever heard that cry? I have, it is haunting and very sad), then you are delusional. These conditions are very difficult, and the love that these people have for their child is obviously immense.
I think that if they can find a way to work through this, they will have a marriage stronger than most can imagine. They have faced down the worst possible scenario. This is a real problem, and is not easy at all.
