As someone who went through this 20 years ago, I can fully empathise and I'm truly sorry for your situation. I still look back on it and wonder: "what if...?"
The only suggestion I can offer is the same as my old manager told me: Don't make any life changing decisions until 6 months have elapsed. I was ready to quit my job and return to the UK but he convinced me to wait. It's a bleak period you're in but it will get better.
I found it helped to talk to people - I was a field engineer and my customers knew all the details of what was happening - that'll teach them to ask how I was doing, they didn't expect to be told! Helped me enormously, though.
