Now my other cat is sick going into renal failure. I don't think I can take many more hits.

Trace I am sorry life is handing you lemons. It is the most difficult time from the sounds of it to find something to be grateful for. Some days I wake up and write in my gratitude journal that I am breathing and how nice that is.
Sounds like you have almost a clean slate. When that happened to me I woke up one day and realized I could reinvent myself. The past had dropped away and I saw myself in a new light.
For me worrying about myself alone felt like I was only half alive. When I started working to help others I found another part of life that made me feel whole. It may be different for everyone but I do not feel as alone except when I focus only on me. When I see how many other people are suffering I realize we are all suffering together.
Hugs to you
