And this is the thing that kills me. There are reams of literature on the health benefits of 2 glasses of alcohol a night. If you have one with dinner and sip another before bed, you can’t even get tipsy off of that.
My husband’s dr tried to tell him that he was an alcoholic for his nightly drinks. When hubs defended himself, the doctor said sincerely, “It’s alright. I’m an alcoholic, too.”
Hubs went OFF. Within fifteen minutes, he’d finally gotten through to the doctor that having a couple of drinks to unwind did not an alcoholic make. The doctor was relieved.
