i dated a really sweet girl. her dad was a raging drunk. one big ass bottle of jack daniels daily. it was comical at first..he would face plant food at the dinner table. it got old very very fast.

he would steal stuff from his PG&E utility truck and give it to me by hiding it in the bed of my pickup. gifts to say, "sorry" for some bullkrap stunt he pulled on me.

good luck..at 70something, his liver has got to be shot.

do the kids understand? i would stop inviting him..anywhere.

no real advice to offer. a true alcoholic is really something to see..ONCE.
