This is a memoir about the author, Alberta H. Sequeira, living fourteen years in an alcoholic marriage. There lives are turned upside down by confusion, fear, broken promises, and abuse.

Read this heartbreaking memoir on the affect that alcoholism has on the whole family. Nothing is hidden from behind closed doors.

The author, Alberta Sequeira, opened her heart to the world with their private lives and “Silent Suffering.”

Nothing she did stopped her husband, Richie Lopes, from drinking. With years of hope and counseling, he died in 1985 at forty-five years of age to this incurable, worldwide disease.

The sequel Please, God, Not Two; This Killer Called Alcoholism is being completed.

It’s the continuation of their lives. The mother watched as her daughter, Lori Cahill, follows the same path as her father.

After three rehabilitation’s, she died November 22, 2006, at thirty-nine years of age.

This moving and honest memoirs hopes to open the eyes of not only the family, but the abuser to see that this is a family disease
