A dear friend of mine has the strangest disease. He has had symptoms of dry skin, stomach ulcers, elevated blood pressure, memory loss, elevated blood sugar, swelling of his ankles, and now they tell him that some of his internal organs are floating in fluid in his stomach! Oh, he finally got diagnosed - something called alcoholism. Folks, it's a disease. It's primary, progressive and if not treated, fatal. I share this story because I want to empower people to do something about it. Help is out there and I can't think of any worthwhile excuse not to get that help. Take your life back because it is one of the most treatable illnesses. Tranquility accompanies good health - which is the antithesis of drinking alcoholically. Such a valuable goal to reach.
