Then you prioritize - which item is necessary for living, which item is something important enough to you that you will drop something else you (or your spouse) considered important in order to continue doing.
You will acknowledge your humanity, which includes in all of us a certain amount of frailty.
No rush, take whatever time you need to sort it all out.

I'm sure you realize this, but you are blessed in your deep faith, a buttress against the strong winds blowing on you at this time.
Blessings for this day and those to come.....
