FH's parents are divorced... his dad is still supporting FMIL... She is so far gone with the alcoholism, that she cant hold a job...
they have been trying to sell their house for over a year... they finally have a buyer and its been taking a long time for the buyer to finally get approved and blah blah... so we started looking at apts for her... we went to a building by us and FMIL got too drunk and never dropped off the deposit (OR SO WE THOUGHT)... we just found out that the buyer was appoved and they are closing in like 2 or 3 weeks... so FH went back to the bld to try and get FMIL the apartment... apparently FMIL threatened one of the workers at the building... she showed up drunk and threatened to KILL HIM!!! so now they are giving FH a really hard time about giving her an apt...
***???? who does that...
we cant get an apartment for her in someones house... that could be a serious nighmare...
no one can afford to put her in some sort of rehab place... no one wants her to stay with them... i think she should stay with one of her aunts, who is exactly like her excpet at 80something she is much nicer and functioning alcoholic than FMIL....

Because no matter, she is his mother. And even though FH is the child, and she is the parent, he will always feel like he has to take care of her. It stinks. If you ever need some inside info from an outside party who lived it, or just to vent, feel free to FM me.
thanks... we'll see how it goes in the next few days... if we get her an apartment or if we can get her into rehab...
shes already been told shes not invited to the wedding if she doesnt clean up her act... and that hasnt done anything...

Alcoholism is a disease. She can't rationalize. If you threatened someone with coming to your wedding who is autistic, would they be able to stop being autistic? Hopefully she will go to rehab again. Until than, keep your head up and just support your FH. I know it's hard.
