"I agree with all of them... Grief is personal! No one should tell you what is right or wrong. I lost my husband, also to Cancer, in 2010 and it seems everyone is an expert, especially those who havent dealt with this grief. "

"I agree with Don's comment. Please don't let others tell you how to grieve, or make you feel you aren't doing it 'right', or that you should expect to feel a certain way at a certain time. We are all different.…"

"Sorry for your loss. We all grieve in different ways. Don't let anyone tell you different. If you haven't had a melt down then good for you. You will heal in your own way."

There is no 'right' way to do this. Feel what you feel when you feel it. I think some of us may be more of a realist with our grieving; we know and accept that our loved ones cannot come back to us, so the only choice is to find a way to survive it. And with you having young children I would think that is certainly best for them. Keep sharing here - there are all sorts of viewpoints.
