This workbook was created when she was having difficulty keeping track of her husband's deteriorating condition from the complications of alcoholism. As she researched all the medical jargon and deciphered what seemed like a secret code, she entered the information into a workbook she had created just for him. Whenever she took her husband to any medical facility, she took this workbook with her and was able to answer questions easily and quickly. Anyone who finds themselves in the position of caretaking an end-stage alcoholic will find this workbook useful. Explanations of various complications in a language that is understandable make this book a must have. Charts for tracking improvement or deterioration are included. Instructions for using the MELD and Child-Pugh Scores to determine life expectancy are also included.
