I have stated before I know of only one person in my life that has had liver problems. He was my brothers best friend in High School 100 years ago 😆 I wondered his story so I asked his wife today. He, my brother and their friends were all drinkers in their day. My brother and his friend kept on going after. My brother still drinks today at 75 years old and has no liver problems but his buddy didn't fare so well. His wife came home to him collapsed, rushed to hospital he was in liver failure. He quit drinking that minute with his wife's help!! He went through hell, he had to have his belly drained many times getting sometimes 2 liters of fluid, his belly was huge at times. That was 20 years ago, today his liver has totally rejuvenated itself and he has no problems to this point all he does is have his usual physical every 6 months. So, we all need to keep these stories in our hearts 💕 it CAN be us!!
