Don't get me wrong, I am not criticizing her for choosing this field of endeavor. I am only stating that it comes with risks and she should have known that fact and accepted those risks.
Just like the iron worker who gets a job working on high rise buildings or recruit who joins the military.

I spent most of my career working in an industry that is regarded as potentially dangerous,
I understood that and accepted that risk because if was worth the reward to be able to provide well for my family.
My wife and I discussed it and she understood.
I did everything I could to make it safe but God forbid if anything did happen, it wouldn't be a complete surprise and I would expect others to say that I knew what I was getting into.
