I'm sorry to hear about your situation. As many have already stated, while a physical paper (laminated) wallet is a good way to keep your bitcoins secure, "betting the farm" on a savings of strictly bitcoin is probably not the smartest move right now. If you have a coinbase account, two-factor authentication is another good way to get that "warm fuzzy". All you need is an app called "Authy" - research it at
www.coinbase.com if you've never heard of this before.
I wish you the best my friend.
you don't even need an app. you can use an SMS for two-factor.
