Hope everything works out for you and your family. An uncle whom I was very close to passed recently...he was only in his fifties but he abused the hell out of his body (smoking, drinking, etc)...he did live life to the fullest though. He was the kind of guy who never had an enemy. There was nothing harder to looking at his children (grown), choking back tears and saying that all they want to do is be like him...make the most of your time with your loved ones...
