An alcoholic is a black hole. Don't get too close, or you will be part of the vortex. Nor do you want to be her 'savior,' because that will permanently lock your relationship into adult/child mode.
Be friendly, supportive; tell her she is worthwhile and always point out what you respect about her, but keep your distance.
As Byron and Aerkuld correctly pointed out, there is a point she has to reach that will signal a 'bottom.' And you might not want to see her at that point, because you and she will always remember that particular glimpse of hell.
Very sorry to hear about your friend, but it's 100% in her hands now.
