He's got George Best written all over him. You need to help yourself before others will. Besides, he's been to therapy and all that and just returns to the bottle. You can't help some people. I just hope another perfectly good liver isn't wasted (again) and goes to someone who will actually appreciate it.

Everyone dies at some point, a lot manage to get to a good age before it happens, unfortunatley a lot are taken too soon
When I was 8 I was devastated, my best mate died of cancer
When I was 14 my uncle died of pancreatic cancer aged only 41, luckily he gave me some wise words and advise for my career, and I thank him for that, without those words, I wouldn't be where I am today
When my grandparents passed away I was very sad, but they had good lives and were in their 80's

I'm a bit worried about the Queen this year.
Mind you, she has had a good, long life, she has stayed quite independent, strong and with all her facilities in working order in her 90's, so it won't be so tragic, if she goes. As long as she goes peacefully with least pain, the inevitable law of life would be less traumatic for her any everyone in her case. Unlike Diana.

Sorry to hear this
One thing I would strongly advise you to do is set a voice recorder going and let him tell you one of his stories, then, in years to come you can close your eyes and he will be with you
My dad had some great stories and I loved listening to them. When my youngest was just born, my dad was having side effects of long term medication for high blood pressure and under active thyroid. He kept burping, lots and often. His doctor said they could alter his meds and monitor him on a ward. He was 180/130 when he went in, a "doctor" [I use that term lightly] stopped his meds and started him on different ones. When my dad told me, straight away I thought you shouldn't just stop the old ones, he should be weaned off them. 3 days went by and his blood pressure was dropping. The last time I spoke to him he was feeling fine, but light headed at times.
The next morning I had 'the call' . He had gone to use the toilet in the morning, closed the door and nurses heard a thud, they opened the door and he was unconsious, he couldn't be revived and passed away soon after .
I asked what the last reading for his blood pressure was, the last time it was checked was the previous night and it was 95 over something When he collapsed due to low BP he hit his head on the toilet on the way down,
WTF were the doctors and nurses actually 'monitoring'?
Surely BP going from 180 down to 120 would be cause for concern, but going down to 95 and it not getting noticed
My point is record memories while you can, it will be memories you can share in the future with your kids or just listen to on your own when you miss him
