You can learn about HG, and encourage her to come here. Sometimes when women are sick they just can't get to the computer, and you could help to educate her from what you learn here, and feel free to ask lots of questions. Find out what meds she is on, and reassure her that she'll make it through. How far along is she? Has she had HG before?
I'm sorry that there is a history of abuse in their relationship. Many times men fear a great deal for their wives' health, and even non-abusive husbands are sometimes not emotionally supportive.
You are already doing a lot. Keep up your efforts, and please keep in touch.
