My mother-in-law, who is 86, has some dementia and is addicted to wine. I mean really addicted. She was drinking 3 bottles an day starting at 10:00 in the morning. If she doesn't have it, she goes nuts. The doctor wants us to wean her off and we've gotten her down to 2, but we are going nuts. Does any one know how it feels when you crave alcohol and can't have. We feel terrible, but she gets really drunk and drinks all night. We don't know how to handle it. The doctor said if we go cold turkey, it could make her have a stroke.
