Lost my wife (34) to cancer last month and I haven't found any good resources to help me. How do you cope with their loss? Please remove if this isn't allowed.

You die a little every night. After friends and family leave. In rhe dark when you hear their voice. In dreams where they reside you catch glimpses of them and when you awake you cry more for their absence. During the day amongst the crowds you catch a brief view of them among the crowd, a faint scent of their favorite perfume, a reminder that they once stood side by side to you and made a smcertain remark. Then you stop and you cry more.
