So sorry for your loss.
Same birthday as my wife and first born child. Even same middle name. Mine is just 10yrs younger we've been together for 31yrs also. God bless you my friend. Find a support group it helps.
My former coworker found his next wife in one after losing his wife to cancer 11yrs ago.
Life goes on you'll always have that hole in your heart but you have two choices one should never be an option, the other is to enjoy the rest of your life. You know she would want that.
