I imagine it would have been much harder for her to die without ever having had a child (if that is what she truly wanted) than for her to have the child and have to "run around after the baby". It's her life and if having a child makes her happy and she has someone who loves her enough to make a child with her knowing that he may end up raising the child alone at some point, than that's wonderful. I wish them well.
I guess that people over the age of 50 shouldn't be babysitting or working in the daycare industry either, huh?
