Angie, is my sister. I just received a call from her. Angie and her husband happened to take a vacation day to go fishing together. They stopped at the liquor store and who did they see there? Yes, Roy was there on Monday morning, getting his bottle instead of looking for a job. He made Angie promise not to tell me. She said he was so worried about me finding out, he didn't even ask how she had been. She said he looked horrible. Angie doesn't see Roy often so the changes in his physical appearance are more obvious to her than they are to me.
I did see Roy on Friday and he was straight, as far as I could tell. I talked to him about a job and his drinking. I gave him money from my mom and asked him not to spend it on booze. The money I give him is to go for food, etc. I have been paying his bills with checks instead of giving him cash. This is the only way I can guarantee that the money goes to living expenses instead of drinking.
