<human>: Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?

My Dad had a recent drug bust in his house where they found a few grams of marijuana.  He is a security officer with the Department of Defense and they are now threatening to take away his job.  

He is currently building his case with his lawyer to stop this and asked me to write him a letter of character to help him.  

Here is where it gets tricky though.  My Dad and I do not have a very good relationship.  We never spent anytime together while I was growing up.  He spent the majority of my childhood in front of the TV or on the internet.  I never really cared about it because I enjoyed being left alone most of the time.  Nothing was sacred though, birthdays, holidays (except for Christmas and Thanksgiving), and even my high school graduation were for the most part treated the same, he would sit in front of the TV or computer. 

Two years ago he had an incredibly bad mid-life crisis which resulted in him causing severe emotional trauma in the family.  Which for the most part got over because I no longer live at home.  

I honestly think that if I am going to do this I am going to have to make up an incredible amount of bullcrap.  Does Reddit have any ideas on what I can say that could tug at the heart strings of the judge in court?  As of right now I am strongly considering playing up the fact that he was diagnosed with PTSD from his tours in the Gulf War and a recent terrible car crash; even though I haven't seen any problems related to the diagnosis.
<bot>: I have to write a letter of character to save my Dad's job.  I barely know him.  I need to make up stuff that is emotionally convincing.
