He Died he died September 29, 2015 from cancer and lately it seems I been thinking about him more and more. I been sober from liquor for about 19 month 18days. But he at 13 got me into drinking I stopped at 31, then the rest is history. He was also gave me my first cig or my first toke. I never liked either until later in life but my asthma will not let me have either afraid so.

I saw him as a little kid as my protector he was my guardian until this little boy snow washed me, which then I found he couldn't protect me no more. He said he was waiting for me to protect myself even though I was screaming for him but he was laughing as though it was one big joke, I was 7.

I grew up in an abusive household my mother told me I was never allowed to do this or that or even preform with dad's band which she despised as I was my dad's little prodigy as he called me because I could pick up the guitar and just jam to any song in perfect rhythm to the bands unique sound. Probably why now I can just do with the guitar and do whatever I want on the guitar and it sounds cool.

I been really been missing him lately and my mom is a such a Beep BEEEEP!!! And Complaining about the simple things its horrible especially about appointments or asking for loans or money for food or things like tablets her reply is "get a job!!" its not that simple. I wish she was more understanding.

I forgot to add my sister has now turned into a wine-o/drunk on Christmas we had a big fight and now she barely talks to me unless she needs me to go to liquor store for her to get her some wine so she can have it for after work she sends me the money and I take a friend and I hobble down there to buy her some wine then she swings by after work and we put it in her trunk. I know it's enabling her but she used to enable me when I a functional aclky I get her different stuff each time and it's always white wine and a case of 12. Some times she asks for certain brands. But it seems since dad died she has gone into a Great Depression and of course the booze doesn't help! Anyone have suggestions for her or me on how to get her some help?

Hello greentires: I don't really have any suggestions for you here. Your sister probably should start with her medical provider, whoever that is... physician, clinic, or other. (I see you're in Canada. I don't know how these sorts of things like this work where you are.) As I presume you realize, unless your sister wants help, there's really nothing you can do to make it happen. My condolences on the loss of your father...
