They need to get Jovi help! He wakes up, takes a sip of alcohol because he “thought it was juice”.

Gwen, Yara, whomever else there is needs to talk about his drinking and he needs help. Alcoholism does not get better. The fact he’s drinking when he wakes up??

Most people would go for water if they’re hungover. An alcoholic would go for the alcohol. Especially when their body starts to become dependent on it physically. He needs help.

I wish they wouldn’t tip toe around this. You see Yara bring it up briefly here & there, but it’s always dropped.

That’s my 2 cents.

    You can be a maintenance drinker only for so long, that’s why he’s got alcohol within reach of him in bed. Apparently more than 1 item of alcohol.

    What eventually happened with your dad?

        I’m sorry you had to go through that, it couldn’t have been pleasant. Idk if your dad’s drinking ever got to the really sloppy drunk day after day stage, but even if it didn’t-watching a family member with an addiction is hard.

        My dad got stage 1 cirrhosis and somehow quit. It didn’t matter though. 14 months later he found out he had lung cancer, and he died 6 weeks later. We’d just finally started to reconnect as a family, which I’m grateful for. We had a great beginning & a great end with him.
