I just re-read your post and wanted to add one more thing... Let yourself cry. The kids are asleep, it's ok to let it out. Tears are healthy, you're going through a lot and have a lot to mourn.

Something I'm struggling with right now is an inability to cry. I get close, get teary, but cannot get to the point where I just let it all out. I know this is because I've tried for so long to keep it all together, to always be strong. It's not healthy. Sure, you need to keep up a good face for your kids, but when you have some alone time let the tears fall if that's what you need right now. Trying to pull yourself together all the time is not good for you. Give youself permission to be human.

You're doing a great job!

((hugs))
