I am late to this thread, but wanted to drop a quick line. My husband also died unexpectedly. He had just retired and we were driving to our new home in NC. He was killed in an accident on the way there. I was in a separate car behind him and saw it all. A year later Covid hit and I still haven't put together my new life yet - as meeting people in a place I ended up moving into alone has been almost impossible. (thanks Covid). But it will happen 2022-23 are my years!
You CAN do this!!!!! Take it one day at a time and don't be too hard on yourself. It will take a full year before you come out of the fog. You need a whole year of firsts to get through and then you will be through the worst of it. I am not saying a year and all is good - just that you will have made it through your first Christmas/Anniversary/Father's Day/Birthday/etc. without your husband.
The paperwork is overwhelming. Take your time and don't be afraid to hire a professional or two as needed.
Remember there is no right way to mourn the loss of a spouse. You be unapologetic and do you. Someone doesn't like it or makes negative comment about how you are handling things - ask if you really need them in the next chapter of your life. People who truly love you will be there for you. Some people won't know what to say or do, and so they will fade from your life. Others will step up to the plate in ways you never imagined.
Finally, take help from others - this is not weakness, this is strength.
Sending hugs. You can do it. You will do it. He would want you to make it through to the other side.
Reach out if I can help or you just need to ask questions of someone who has been there.

I’m glad to see your update. But oh, holy hell … no big decisions in the first year that would be hard to undo. They both got remarried within a year? Please don’t do that. No big decissions for at least a year, for sure. One SIL was" set up" to be married off by the church ladies of their LDS Ward, the other through becoming a born-again Christian. If my SILs were being honest it was the $$$. They both remarried well. I'm going to leave it there. Warning you now, you are on my young widow spread sheet, but it's not something I have to see on paper, when my heart remembers you, as such a young widow. {Hugs}
