I totally understand and my home is lived in full time as well, and things do happen and septic systems do go bad for one reason or another. Our house was built in 1790, not sure how old the septic is but it does work.
The only point that I was attempting to make was have you had one of the service companies inspect your tank and tell you weather they are pumping out solids or just a bunch of water.
That is all, good luck.
Why did your friend have to replace? Because he didn't pump it out or because of other reasons?
