My completely uninformed guess is that she had
become clinically depressed and suicidal (not
an uncommon response to the death of a beloved
spouse).

I should think a close eye ought to be kept on
anyone who gives away all their money--especially
if it's a large amount--and goes into seclusion
following a spouse's death.  I'd even wonder if
giving away all one's wealth might be a kind of
metaphor for suicide, a pre-suicidal gesture.

Henning was an extremely charismatic guy, which
I suspect made it all the harder on Debbie to
lose him.
