He died in the driveway of a massive heart attack when he was 47 on his birthday- its been 19 years. I never thought I would have lost my Dad when I was 24. he abused me- and changed course only the last two years of his life so I guess I got something good out of his life. I believe his addictions made him a horrible person which is why I am not sure if he was really a narcissist so I think @Divine is on to something.

Yes..addictions really make people mean..he thinks it’s justified. I have witnessed him getting worse and worse and this was the ultimate in humiliation and disrespect. I felt it was set up.
