Sister to an alcoholic brother: A sibling's journey to recovery.

By Olivia Doyle

'When the drama of addiction comes knocking on your door, for a fleeting moment, you wish to pretend, you're not home.' Olivia is the youngest sister to two alcoholic siblings. For years she maintains them at arm's length to protect herself from their self-destruction. In 2019 she answers the phone. 'Last night, I started to wish I wasn't alive anymore.' Her brother's voice still echoes in her ears. Has he finally hit the proverbial rock bottom? Will this call for help, be the final one? Countless times, she's vowed never again yet she answers her brother's plea for help. The ever-hopeful sister. Alcoholism is a family disease. You may not suffer from it physically but when one family member has it, everyone is affected emotionally, sometimes physically, and financially. Join Olivia as she shares with us her memories of fear, sadness, anger, and resilient hope.
