Heh, the old man spent like 1k everyday going on hookers (yep, at eleven I was with a naked woman, he took me) and their overpriced beverages while the business was hot. He forgot to pay to the IRS amidst all that, so I had the money to do that, In the end I got what I asked for. He became a helicopter dad to my 25 year difference bro, started a new life and become useful, finally the dad I hadn't growing up. I did the right thing IMHO.
If what you did lead to your dad getting his shit together, then I'd agree: him repaying the loan isn't necessary. Just seeing the improvement in his life, and thereby his mental health, is enough.
You still sober?
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
