Hiya,
Recently you may have read my posts re my mum being a chronic alcoholic and being ni hospital because of it. Anyway she was in for 3 weeks came out and was deinking again within 1 week.
I went up last night to find her feet swollen her licving in squallor again (after my sister and I recarpeting and basically gutting her full house out) I phoned the doctor this morning who came up and readmitted her to hospital.
Anyway my question is IS Alcoholism genetic. I'm not worried about me but about my kids as in her drunken pathetic state last night my mum says it runs in families and just skips a generation. I don;t know what to think and I don't know whther she is just trying to upset me.
Any info would be helpful guys
Lucky
