Back on the wagon again. 16 years alcoholic too late to quit without health problems?

I was doing really good going 3 months sober at a time and then slipping up and going 2 weeks, slipping up. I was sober for a good 2 months and we went to Mexico All Inclusive, that was fun but I drank and I came back and have been binge drinking 3-4 times a week for about a month now. I’m 36 about to turn 37 and I’m really ready to be done for the rest of my life. I’ve binge drank 3-4 times a week since I was 21, that’s 16 years and it scares me. Sometimes I feel like it’s too late and I’ve already punched my ticket for an early death from alcohol.

Has anyone else quit and remained healthy after drinking so long?

My biggest motivator is health and of course how motivated I am when I am sober for extended periods, I am a better person sober. Anyways I’m on day 3 now and I want to take one day at a time, but I want to look at this post a year from now and be on day 365 sober.
