I also have friends who lived their entire lives like saints, and are now suffering in hospitals. One was on dialysis for years and is now living with a kidney transplant. Never drank alcohol in his life, never smoked, ate well, was never fat, never done anything excessive.
Got to enjoy life as fully as you can (even with a few broken bones, and a few burnt brain cells), but know when to ease off the pedal.
It's a balance. Like a guitar string. Too tight, it will break -- too loose, it won't play.
All the very best to Phil. And to all: enjoy your coins before you won't be able to!
