• He writes that Perry “used humor as a deflector-shield,” praising the time they spent together and the bond formed over recovery.
• After reading Perry’s 2022 memoir, Sheen planned to invite him for coffee but never sent the message, a choice he now regrets.
• Perry died in October 2023 at age 54, with the medical examiner naming acute ketamine effects as the primary cause, and Sheen notes he never used ketamine.
