Wow, SC, what a man! It seems to me that they dont make men like our fathers anymore. My mom was an alcoholic. Though she had a difficult childhood to say the least, she tortured my dad daily. I dont know how he stood it, but stood it he did. He said he could not leave her, he took a vow and meant it and stood by her.

Well, S, you are made of the same stuff, a throwback, a real "man" with honor and integrity. Your wife doesnt even realize what she is giving up.

So thanks for restoring my faith in men a little. Keep on keepin on, my friend. It matters, all of it, it does.
