[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 752321, member: 4152"] It’s awkward for me, but I’m not familiar with addiction in my family. This absolutely does NOT mean it hasn’t been there, is not there currently or wont be there. My husband recalls one person that likely was abusing alcohol on his side if the family. But it’s a maybe. I am not familiar with anyone like that in my family : mother or father. However, I have a grandfather that was killed as a young man. Wrong place, wrong time. I do wonder what in the world happened to him. No one would talk about it. A mystery man. I do recognize it is likely at the very least one person has had this issue. But, I also recognize that I’ve seen it’s prevalence more pervasive in other families and it’s profoundly devastating. As a side note...I had a Dr once whose father and brother were alcoholics. He believed there is a genetic tendency for this. He told me he has never had a single drink. It made him terrified and he had no desire whatsoever. [/QUOTE]
