Gary Kildall (creator of CP/M) went out in a similarly sad fashion unfortunately.

It happens to the best of us. Alcohol is no respecter of Kings or Queens. This is something judgemental people don't seem to realize.

Indeed, I know a couple of very talented, intelligent sensitive people (one being a family member) who've let their life and careers suffer because of alcoholism. I wish you all the best for your recovery.
