Please get into IC asap. The IC must be skilled in issues related to alcoholism. Alcoholism is a disease that can be treated.
You are differentiated from everyone else, whether you realize it or not. You have plenty to give. Even if your M does not survive, you need to be there for your children and for yourself, so you must redefine yourself - you are everything and more without your current wife. If the M survives, you will do everything to make it better. Even if it does not, become the best version of yourself because both you and your kids need that.
