I drank every Sunday for many years with my mother. Sadly, the drinking caught up to her. She was just a few months shy of 99 years old.

I'm surprised she lived that long. Drinking that much should destroy your liver.

But you don't know how much she drank.

Yeah, I thought that might be a factor — but regardless, drinking every week is sure to be bad for your liver.
