Regarding the story about Rav Rachumi's wife
There is a gemara in the Ketubot about a compassionate Rav who did not return once on Yom Kippur and his wife cried and he fell and died – and this gemara has an explanation by Rav Chaim Shmuelevich – but still after all the explanations I do not understand, because his wife is certainly much more sorry and difficult for her that her husband died, so why was she "punished" also for the fact that he was not well – and he was taken from her?

Rabbi Shmuelevich's explanation has always been extremely problematic in my opinion. In my opinion, this story is also a legend and its role is to teach us that it is important to consider a woman even in small things. This is not necessarily a description of events that really happened, and therefore it is not worth going too deep into the details of the story and their justification.
