Brief Answer:
Your actions haven't rushed her stroke or death.

Detailed Answer:
Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your concern. First of all I'd like to tell you that pathophysiological processes for stroke take time and the onset of stroke in most cases is not acute. Atherosclerosis usually is a common cause and the process take time and one bad episode can't result in stroke with in two weeks. So don't remain guilty, you haven't resulted her death. Please remain relaxed and try to divert your attention away from all these things.

You are not the cause of her death. Your actions haven't rusher her stroke or death.

Thanks, I hope this helps you. If you have more doubts please ask again.
