Very sorry for your loss.
My deepest condolences, it is hard at first but the pain dulls as the hours and days pass. Sometimes something will make you very sad and you think about your loved one but it does get easier. I just lost my Dad and best friend in July so things are fresh still but getting easier. Our prayers go out to you and your family.
Thank you all for being so kind and supportive! I especially appreciate those of you who shared your own experience of loss and how you coped. It's amazing how you'll be fine for a while, then some little thing will catch you off-guard.
I wanted to share with you-all more about how she passed...and yes, music does help!

I am glad she had a peaceful end. You really couldn't hope for a better one, I suppose.
I lost my father in 1977 to heart disease. He was only 55. I found the first year very difficult, but it does get better eventually. When I had trouble sleeping, I found that putting the radio or TV on helped a lot. If you let your mind wander, you will stumble onto the sad thoughts more often. But, if you can focus your mind on other things, it helps a lot.
Even now 33 years later, I can feel the loss, but it is no longer a daily event. I don't think the pain ever really completely goes away... it just becomes less frequent.
