He has been healthy most of his life and a very moderate social drinker. I am shocked at this. He was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s about 8 years ago. He is still fairly independent and never really complains. Does anyone have any experience with cirrhosis and what to expect? My dad is 85 and a real sweetheart.

There are other causes for cirrhosis besides drinking. People get liver disease who were never drinkers.
Cirrhosis is serious and management of it depends on how advanced a case your father has. His doctor needs to run more tests to look for the cause of the cirrhosis if he wasn't a drinker. He could have another condition that caused it and would need different treatment.
