Michael Lohan, 50, has moved from New York City to the Los Angeles area in hopes of opening his own “faith-based” rehabilitation center. The father of former rehab patient Lindsay Lohan, 24, has struggled with drugs and alcohol in the past. He has publicly accused Lindsay of abusing prescription drugs, which she adamantly denies.

Michael, who is “getting closer” to sealing a deal to make his dream a reality, said:
“After seeing what my daughter, myself and other people I know have been through, it has led me to realize this is my calling and purpose in life.”
“All of the things that have happened to me in my life have led to this. I know this is what God wants me to do first and foremost.”
He claims that the center will be a spiritual retreat, focused on mind and body. Michael said doctors will not be employed and conventional medical treatments will be taken care of at an associated hospital. He added that the patient’s spiritual beliefs are irrelevant at the center, saying:
“the basis of the rehab will be that there is a God; that good conquers evil; that the best way to live is to treat others like you want to be treated; and treat your body like a temple.”

The famous father said the retreat will not be exclusive to VIP celebrities and the rich and famous:
“I’m not going to close my doors on anyone. We may offer a scholarship [to those in need]. You don’t have to be Lindsay Lohan or Nicole Richie or Robert Downey Jr. or a celebrity to get rehab.”
Well, can’t say I saw this coming, but I also can’t say it surprises me. The Lohan clan needs to disappear for a while. Go to a deserted island, get your shiz together, and then join the rest of the world again.
