This might not help your wife but hopefully it can in time. My dad dies of diabetes and was given a prognosis of 6 months, he went 9. I went to see him with my younger son as much as we could, 150 miles from here. Through that experience I realized these two simple facts. When a person knows they are going to die it's hard for them and easier on their loved ones. When a person dies suddenly it's good for them and hard on everyone else. We are fortunate to know we have some time to show our dying loved one how much we love them, appreciate the live they had with that person, and say how they will be missed. Make the most of this time and her regrets will be much less
