    Rain in My Heart Documentary

    I watched all ten eposides yesterday. I have a Cousin who's profile is exactly like the girl who died. Two weeks ago they found her in a driveway with a body temp of 27 degrees. She had been severely beaten and sexually assulted and was definately on death's door. She lasted two weeks AF and was drinking again. Her father died of alchoholism when she was a teenager.
    I have tried to help her for years all the while battling my own problems with alchohol. I hate this demon, it robs people of their lives.
    Don't worry, be happy!

        I watched all ten episodes last night - Shocking to see what AL can do if you let it get that far. RIP Tracey and Nigel

          Thank you for posting that documentary. I am so thankful I found this site. Today I am AF. My problem is going with alcohol on the weekends. I don't know why Saturday should be any different than Monday. :new:

            Thanks for putting these up Ive never seen them..I needed to see my own drinking from the outside and feel like I just have. Am 2 weeks AF today and sooo glad for that. Toni's death was scary as she didnt even think she had a problem and even said she intended going out for a drink believing mixing wine with lemonade and ice would be ok. Her poor son, it is devastating to watch someone else but I have 3 kids myself and my 82 year old mum who are worried sick about me. I am sober today and hope to carry on that way.

              I think the documentary is very touching. It is sad to have to learn a lesson through death!

                there are no words - just finished watching this, and if this doesn't scare me enough to stop, not sure what will....
                everyone should watch this and repeat as needed......

                  God Bless these people for allowing themselves to be filmed; they know/knew how important it is to increase awareness and help others, even while under the influence.....I applaud them......

                            I first came across MWO having watched this documentary and then I just googled for an update - to find out that Vanda has died. This documentary was very powerful, very sad, very real . I have been AF since 7th September and benzo (diazepam) free since the beginning of October. I was feeling a bit lacklustre & complacent yesterday and needed something to refresh my memory about the reality of life dependent on alcohol, so watching Rain In My Heart did it for me. There was something particularly about Mark and his drinking red wine, bucket at the ready, that reminded me of the sheer hell of it all.

                              This is life altering painful real accurate...hugely important. It probably changes lives, I hope it does. I say this because I watched someone die like this, it made me quit. Hard core al really IS this awful. And I saw myself short of by a few years at some point in the past. I can't believe how sugar coated and hidden this problem is either. Third largest cause of death in America.

                              My thanks. This is SO important.

                                WOW, my heart just broke in two for Cass I think her name is, Nigels wife, I just cant even imagine watching the one you love get taken in that manner.

                                Ive seen a lot of programs that show drug addicts, and how bad off they can get, but this is the first time Ive ever seen alcoholics look like drug addicts. It just seems that AL really isnt any different than drugs...........its just sociably acceptable.

                                I did see a little of myself in almost all of them....starting to drink in the am, drank almost out of habbit.....and ended up in a hospital because of a drinking episode gone bad.

                                Im glad to this day I hit that rock bottom.......fuggin alcohol!
