Have you ever watched the tv program Intervention? We use to think that alcoholics had to reach rock bottom before they could be helped, but now we know families can make them seek help faster. It really gives lots of tips on what you can do, but the whole family has to stick together. I'm glad your son has stopped drinking and driving that will help save his life, and keep him out of prison. I think there needs to be affordable treatment plans for people without insurance. Some experts say that many alcoholics need at least 3 rehab treatments, and it's more of a process than an end all treatment. I'm so sorry you have to go through this, it is such a burden, and I pray you're son will seek treatment.
