Sounded like from the bits and pieces on the tv last night that he was on a ventilator and/or taking oxygen regularly. Honestly, certainly he was a world-class performer/artist...but the guy was a freak show. What kind of parenting can you do under the influence of these sorts of drugs? What happens in an emergency? I don't know about anyone else, but my kids have needed help in the middle of the night from time to time. (Yes, I know that the hired help/nanny steps in...but still...) What a mess.
