My mom's addictions

Hi guys. My mom is an alcoholic and a smoker. Maybe pack a day, maybe not, I dunno. Anyway, she wants to quit. However, she has to quit drinking before quitting smoking. She would just stop, but it takes a lot of willpower she says she doesn't have, and she is afraid of getting a DT. (which is getting a lot of seizures that can kill you when you stop drinking.) Please pray for her. Thanks and God bless!

DTs are definitely a risk. How much is she drinking?

Sometimes inpatient detox is the only way if the DT risk is high. The drinking risk is far more important -- the smoking will kill her later, but the drinking will kill her now. :(
