Bad judgment and bad decisions.

I tried to intervene, but you just couldn't stop him.

Shouldn't have been driving. Multiple fender benders. (He paid off the other drivers in cash so the DMV wouldn't know about the accidents.) Put food on the stove and left the kitchen to watch TV in another room. Refused to let me or a car service drive him into the City (20 miles each way) for cataract surgery. Was a retired physician and self-medicated. (Had 40 bottles of drugs when he died) Let the house go to seed (no repairs or maintenance). More, so much more.
