Hi there! This is a very bad situation unless the person seeks help, do you realize the brain shrinks with with excessive alchohol use, I know of a few people that are 24 hour care because of this that are in adult foster care, there is psorosis which is a very nasty debilitating disease disease that is generally caused by excessive alchohol use. Alchoholics are very difficult to live around, they can be hurtful not only physically but mentally. They have terrible mood swings, most of them to me act very depressed, but they think they hide it behind a bottle. Vodka drinkers do not smell as bad at first as wine or whisky drinkers do but after awhile the odor is just as well. Most have to hit rock bottom before they change. In my opinion they are no better off then drug addicts after all it is mainly the chemical and alchohol does have a lot of sugar in it.
As far as cigarrette smoking goes, I smoke also, only about 4 cig's per day and I do realize it is not good for us either as it causes cancer and emphysema an a lot of other problems and diseases.
I do hope this person seeks help, before it is too late!
Sincerely,
sandy

Just a matter of time, years perhaps, but get ready to turn yellow and sieze your liver.
A dear irish friend of mine died suddenly at 49. Beer and whisky, morning till night.
