Feb. 25, 2022 – Asked about his current health status, he said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “I’m doing well. I’m an AA guy. I’m a 12-Step Program guy. I spent six months in a rehabilitation center, locked down. I went to court a few times; I had trouble with the law. And if that’s what it took to get me where I’m at right now, that’s what it took. It’s been a long time coming.
“I was sober and clean for 21 years,” he explained. “I was sober and clean when I was 32 and I stayed sober and clean — honest to God — all through my 30s [and] 40s up until I was 54. And prescription drugs — I was on a Hepatitis C treatment, the old kind — prescription drugs got me high. And quite a few other things were going on in my life at that time, and I relapsed. I went back out to hard drugs, then to alcohol. And for the last 10 years, I would go in to rehab for a month or two, come out and only get… The most I got [was] 71 days [sober] once. But that monkey was on my back pulling at me all the time. ‘You can sneak another one. You can sneak another one.’ It’s always that first one that gets me drunk, high, whatever. It might not be that very first one, but it’s gonna happen — it’s gonna happen within two weeks, it’s gonna happen in two months — it’s gonna happen, and it always did. And it usually happened within three months where I ended up in handcuffs and hauled off to jail again.
