Message: <blockquote data-quote="Stallen" data-source="post: 1067440" data-attributes="member: 223641">This may seem harsh, but the reality is both my parents died having terrible complications brought on by their lifestyles, they both required an extensive care package, both suffered amputations and many operations my mother was on dialysis was partially sighted and suffered bronchitis alongside her diabetes losing fingers and toes, my father suffered angina and had several heart attacks including strokes and was a double amputee above the knee, both drank, ate and smoked their lives away.Addiction is something that only the person in question can do it, sadly my parents lived the way they wanted, despite the advice they were always dismissive saying life is for living, having spent time caring and pandering to them, their carefree lives came at a price, they died  and suffered, and were a burden to many people around them.  I hope the o/p can get back on track, I wish her well as the alternative possibly could well be all or any of the above.</blockquote>
