For one thing, you have to realize that NONE of us has ANY CONTROL over what is going to happen. It doesn't matter how many times you check on someone, you have no control over it. If it's going to happen, it's just plain going to happen! You have to give your fears over to your Higher Power -- if you have one.  Ask Him to take your fears away. 
I do understand your fears. Several years ago, I also lost 3 members in my family in a very short span of time, and I thought I'd lose my mind -- and at the time my husband was dying too.  But I knew there was not a thing I could do about it. I had to accept the fact that it was happening.
Death is part of life. We have to accept that. None of us will live forever. Losing our parents is our greatest fear --- I've lost both of mine and it was the hardest thing I ever have gone thru. I miss my mother terribly, and there are still things I was to tell her or ask her -- she died in 2003. But, she is in a better place.
If you have a pastor, minister, priest, talk to him. It will do you a lot of good. Or, talk with a grief counselor. They also help alot. I wish you the very best. Please take care. God bless! Hugs, Lee
