(((DEPRESSME))). It is a very sad situation that you have to deal with in your life at this time regarding your father. It is also very wise to keep yourself safe. Maybe in time your brother will consider going to Al-Anon or another group that can offer him support. Thrapy is also a good option for your brother to help him stay safe in his emotional struggles he is having at this time. Take care. Soidhonia
