Reads like the guy wasted 35 years of his life living with a kook. There's no mention of the two having children, being legally or even secretly married. No mention of going to Sweden, of all the destinations they visited to do the deed, so she could spare her lover the hardship and pain of being dragged through a criminal trial. This woman's selfishness was enabled by a man being repulsively weak in the mind.

What was she terminally ill with?
