[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone summarize?  [/quote]

Basically, the key points:
-Kane/Peter was heavily over-medicated by his therapist, including Ambien (no one believed her about Peter's/Kane's addiction issues)
-Natasha said his addiction led to his crazy mood swings & his lack of control (like when he went off on someone in public during a Pride event)
-Natasha was addicted to opiates from a back injury
-She was ordered into rehab for 30 days by a judge
-They were in couples therapy for a few years prior to separation & before the NBC4 special
-Kane/Peter was a big workaholic & never made time for family (one reason they went to therapy)
-Kane/Peter never had full custody as he said
-Natasha never emptied the bank account but she & the girls did leave him
-Girls weren't allowed any contact with Natasha when they were with Kane/Peter
-Sam called Natasha after finding Peter having a seizure & both girls were present when it happened & she rushed over to the house
-Peter's nanny arrived & tried to kick Natasha out but she refused & went through the house to find what he'd been taking (pills, alcohol, etc.) & also the paramedics wanted to know what he was taking
-While searching she found ~23 bottles of Grand Marnier and most were hidden around the house like in dirty laundry
-She also found prescriptions for valium, adderall, xanax, ambien, and ketamine all prescribed by the same psychiatrist 
-Basically, his body shut down from abuse... he had cirrhosis of the liver, his kidneys were failing, he was yellowish, he got a bad respiratory infection from aspirating during the initial seizure
-That evening after going to the ER he was in ICU and spoke with the girls. That was the last time he was awake and coherent and able to speak with them (or anyone)
-Was in the hospital in a coma for weeks before death
-Natasha said her biggest regret was that she never went to Peter one-on-one, no lawyers, no ulterior motives of trying to get custody, and spoke with him about his addictions
-She was sad he never got a second chance like she did. She said she got her second chance and there was a point after he'd been in the hospital for a few weeks that it dawned on her that he may not get another chance
-She was very angry about the whole situation for a long time but is now at a point where she's happy that he finally found peace
-She doesn't focus on things he did in the past now, just the good parts/times with him
-Girls are good overall but still grieving (Sophie mainly remembers the good stuff with her dad & Sam has harder time and still needs to really process it, according to Natasha b/c she's very mature for her age & emotions don't come naturally to her)
-Says Sam still remembers the bad of her dad and still has moments of remembering thinking what's he going to be like when he gets home, what's his mood going to be like, etc. 
-Natasha said Peter is a big reason why her 2nd marriage fell apart b/c everything was always all about Peter and the situation of dealing with him
-Is in no rush to find a new partner but does want to get married again[/quote]

It was obvious he was an alcoholic.

The seizure, liver and kidney failure mean he was an alcoholic for quite some time. It doesn’t happen overnight. It doesn’t happen in a year.

The meds from the psychiatrist were likely prescribed in an effort to help him give up booze and control his anxiety and issues with pills. Sadly, most alcoholics just can’t kick the booze.

He must have been drinking daily and heavily for many years. The seizure meant he actually went cold turkey or too long without a drink.

Sad. [/quote]
