My hugs and prayers are with you and your family right now.
I hope your husband is able to see that now she is free of her pain and her fear; and knowing she passed in the company of those who loved her had to make her heart glad.
I've been with loved ones while they died, and it IS hard, but later you are very glad that you were there. I held my 10 yr old nephews hand as he died... believe me I DO understand. How much sadder it would be though if no one had gone to be with her.
He did the right thing however hard that was to do. I hope it brings him peace to know that he was able to give something back to her as his final farewell.
