<p>The actor’s son Henry died in January 2018 after being diagnosed with a brain tumour.</p>
<p>Delaney, who previously struggled with alcoholism, posted a message on Twitter saying getting through the first year after losing Henry had been “brutal” but it “would have been far worse” if he had not been clean.</p>
<p><a href="https://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/E9CB059C-99F5-4E28-9CB8-BD6C60D424FB.jpeg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-125356" src="https://londonglossy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/E9CB059C-99F5-4E28-9CB8-BD6C60D424FB-784x1024.jpeg" alt="" width="640" height="836" /></a></p>
<p>He told his followers: “As of today I’ve been sober 17 years. 17 years ago I was in jail in a wheelchair. Today I’m not.</p>
<p>“I am profoundly grateful to the alcoholics who shined a light on the path for me and helped equip me with the skills to live life well.</p>
<p>“This has been a brutal year for my family and me. Our first year without our son and brother Henry.</p>
<p>“Had I not been sober, it would have been far worse. As it was, I squeaked by.</p>
<p>“Sobriety allowed me to be a reasonably good dad, husband, and worker through it all. (If you average it out. I think.)</p>
<p>“Sobriety allows me to grieve fully, and grief is an expression of love.”</p>
<p>The Catastrophe star, 42, also thanked “everyone who has helped me”.</p>
<p>“I can’t do it alone,” he said.</p>
<p>Delaney and his wife have three other sons. Their youngest was born in August, months after Henry died.</p>
