  I just got off the phone with my very good friend, who apparently is in turmoil over the surgery of her "Father-like" figure. He has a heart condition and needs to drink red wine (something in the wine that actually helps his heart) every now and then. Irony being...he was an alcoholic. I'm fairly disturbed in regards this seeing how there is only a 5% chance this man will live after the surgery. And even after..he might not live for very long should he survive. So i ask everyone here, even if you believe there is no God, to pray for Amish (his name) to be safe & sound after the srugery. I will inform everyone how it goes..shoudl anyone want to know. The Surgery is a 24 hour surgery that's being done right now as we speak. Wont know the results until tomorrow around this time (4pm). So please ...just pray for Amish for a safe and normal return to health. ~FS

  Yes, FiveShadows, DJ is absolutely right about this -

  He can drink red grape juice and get all the benefit that he woould get from red wine - the ethyl alcohol contributes NOTHING to his health, an if he's an alcoholic, he doesn't need more alcohol.

  Even better than the grape juice, however, is the grape SEED -it contains much more of the good anti-oxidant compounds than the juice does. Just make sure the seeds are from RED, not WHITE grapes. You should be able to find either powdered grape seeds or powdered extract of red grape seeds, but here is one vineyard that sells the powdered seeds:
