Very sorry for your loss and the sudden shock.

The thing I remember most about grieving, is that the phase some folks call 'denial' is really just 'rest' from the often overwhelming work of processing.

I hope you can find a real live, in person, support group. I only have 20 years with this spouse and shockingly numb, I'm sure, would be one of my first responses. (We had a recent scare and a lot of deaths in our peer group. Death has been a big topic in our home lately.)
