Marc - you've given alot - your post is very touching.
All I can say is hang in there.  Two sayings come to
mind that help me cut through the clutter and anguish:

On keeping the faith in Pete and that the good will
out,
"To believe in something not yet proved and to
underwrite it with our lives; it is the only way we
can leave the future open."  - Lillian Smith

On what do I do IF IF IF the worst turns out, my
approach would be to:
"Hate the sin, love the sinner."

That's it.  Those two sayings cover a lot. For more
extended affirmations, see the posts from Schrade and
Jon yesterday.  Those cheered me right up! 
best,
