Right now in the book, Bill is still a heavy drinker and uses cocaine.  But he is starting to go back to his publishing company that he owns.  His company is miraculosly making decent profit from a book that they recently published.  One night to celebrate a book publishing he drinks to much goes home wakes up and his boyfriend Noah tells him that his sister and two other close friends are there for an intervention sort of thing.  "I don't struggle, not yet.  I am quiet and cooperative as each of them, in turn-- Kim, Kate, Noah, David- tells me they will support my getting sober but won't support me, won't have anyrhing to do with me, if i continue to use." (Clegg 181)  I find this part very emotional and interesting mainly becuase I'm curious as to what Bill is going to do.  In the past they have told him to sober up but he has never gone through with it.  But now that they are all threatening to leave him, he realizes that he must make a choice to either keep using drugs, or to have his family with him.  The next couple of chapters will definitly be interesting.
