Please give your wife a hug from me. I know that this will hit her pretty hard and it shouldn't. There is even less that she could have done about this.
No matter how "strong" a person is, there's always something that's going to "get to them". But, I know that when I'm in my husband's arms, I'm safe......no matter what. :-)
Consider it done.
And thank you for your kind words.
