I read it too nd started to cry.
Elders should be cherished.
I don’t know how someone with a heart could do this to someone in their family.

I don’t think we should get all weepy over Mickey. He was a degenerate gambler who went through fortune after fortune, was married something like 8 times, had one of the worst tempers in the business and solicited oral sex from a fourteen year old Elizabeth Taylor. Even he admitted he was a creep in his many autobiographies which I devoured as a kid. Hilariously awful books, btw, which I recommend to anyone who is a fan of camp.
That said, he was a performing genius. An absolute idiot savant of the performing arts. Could do almost anything with great passion and truth.
