You should watch "The Danish Girl." That's pretty much exactly what is about.

My parents are mental health professionals and have a lot of experience dealing with addicts. Before I share what they've told me, please don't take this as fool-proof advice. Groups like AA & NA often have support groups available for family members of addicts. Their advice will be much more thorough and specific. Or consult a professional addiction counselor.

That being said, my parents have told me the worst you can do is enable them--whether by helping them pursue their habit (pretty clear-cut & obvious) or not doing anything to prevent them from pursuing their habit. This often translates to cutting someone out of your life as long as they are still using. It seems cruel, for some it is too much to follow through with, but telling someone you 100% disapprove of their choices, and will only allow them back in your life when they've committed to making changes, can be a very powerful motivator.

Edit: I should have pointed out that this is not something you do as the first or even second attempt at helping your loved one get sober. My understanding is that this is an option of last resort when the person is headed towards oblivion and will not accept any offers of help. And it is not right for every addict, and not right for every family/friend of an addict. As with most things related to addiction, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. And they all take lots of hard work from everyone involved.

"Sera" with no accent is "he/she will be." So it would translate directly to "what she will be, she will be." It becomes a pretty nonsensical sentence.

What is something about evolution that many people don't know about? It could be something that is perhaps still a theory, a "more controversial" idea at the fringes of the field, something along those lines.

They see cows as sacred, but I've never heard, seen, or read about Hindus keeping cows as pets in their homes, and being affectionate with them in the way people are with cats and dogs.
