[QUOTE="Robrunner, post: 1842500, member: 486258"] You might want to stage an intervention where you are all present in a room as this would also have an impact. Some other key points would be to do it when he hasn't drunk anything and in a good mood. It is quite often that people get defensive and perhaps leave the room. From a personal experience with a family member this is exactly what they did but after all waiting there for him to return we were able to sit down and talk about how we feel towards the drinking and how they are caring for themselves. Deliverly is key as you can imagine so try not to lay blame just let them know you're hear for them and if they are willing to go to a group or something similar advise you'd all be happy to go. Though it is down to the person to change how they act, it is a family and friends that go through the journey with them start to end. On a slightly different point as well, diet may help not only their diabetes but their back problems. There is some evidence to suggest that a lot of back pain is due to infection. With this in mind increasing whole foods would be key and further more cutting the alcohol would be best. Alcohol is a pro inflammatory when consumed in large quanties over a long period of time. While they won't see overnight cures, if kept to it they'll feel much better. [/QUOTE]
