AA meetings are good, but you might find Al-Anon meetings much more helpful for you personally.
But /u/SOmuch2learn is right. I doubt there are Al-Anon meetings anywhere in Afghanistan. And I personally don't like phone meetings.
OK, fine. Have you ever read the "personal stories" section of the Al-Anon basic text?
Have you ever looked into "community reinforcement approach and family training"?
Could your grandpa personally witness your mom swallow one daily dose of disulfiram / Antabuse, plus make sure she regularly gets some naltrexone (generic / once-daily Revia tablets / once-monthly Vivitrol injections)? Remember, if she hides the tablets in her mouth then secretly spits them out later, it doesn't count as swallowing the tablets.
Edit: Naltrexone isn't so cheap. The cheapest way to get it is using the Costco pharmacy or the Costco online pharmacy. You don't have to be a Costco member. Or maybe your mom's insurance (or the government) might cover it. It may not work for everyone, but it works at least for some.
