I think my husband is addicted to pain killers. He has walked out on us, has stolen money, jewelry, steam cleaner, etc., told me he doesn't love me and has filed for divorce. Yesterday my sister told me her husband has been giving him painkillers and he has been drinking so many things are really starting to make a whole lotta sense. My question is do I confront him and tell him I want to help or do i just let him destroy himself? My daughter is battling cancer and we do not need any negativity in our lives, but I can't help but think that if this were me, I would hope he would stand by me and try to pull me out of this downward spiral. Has anyone gone through this - are there any words of strenght that can help me get past him and on with my life?

I have been married 12 years to an addict of alcoholi and painkillers. They have to hit their bottom before they get help, if they even want the help. It maybe that he is having a hard time dealing with your daughter's condition and this helped the addiction along.
The only advice I can give is you are dealing with two different animals. The marriage and the addiction.
In either case, you need to take care of yourself and you daughter. He is going to do whatever he wants to do until he can't do it anymore. That ball, MelC, is on his court. As I don't like to see any family fall apart, this is his fight, not yours. You take care of the rest of the family, with you. first.
Good luck.
