Death of husband

I’m 13 weeks pregnant. At 7 weeks I lost my beloved husband - we also have a 12, 9, and 6 year old. He passed while we were on vacation, saving two of my children from a rip current. The trauma my family went through is unfathomable. He was the most involved father - coached every sport. He is the love of my life, my safest space. I’ve been so sick with the pregnancy but that pain doesn’t pale in comparison to my grief. I don’t want comments that note people are sorry for me. Has anyone been here and gotten to the other side of pain? This pain is beyond heartbreak - and doesn’t feel sustainable for any kind of life. I need to hear stories of someone who has walked through this to the other side and found some semblance of joy. Not death of parents, death of a spouse with a young family. Thank you.
