Hang in there JB.
I lost my 27 year old wife to a brain anurism. She was 7 months pregnant. Luckily doctors were able to save our son.
Like you, she was my best friend and the most beatiful, loving , caring person I have ever met. It has been nearly 4 years. I know you don't believe it right now, but the pain does gradually lessen. I still cry but much less frequently. Like you, I still have trouble watching certain TV shows. Many things remind me of her and our life. The difference now is that the memories bring more happiness than sadness.
Words can't make things better. In time, the pain DOES subside. Be strong my friend. I have been through it and am raising my son alone. If I can do it, anyone can.
