How can I help my wife ?

My wife is scared with all these shootings that have been happening lately. We had one in a town up north of us. I told her it’s very rare our state has shootings we live in a safe one but since the Vegas shooting it seems to be happening everywhere. We have this youth group we travel with they go to lots of fun places around the state she’s afraid to go anymore once we get there she has fun and forgets about it. She’s scared for her mom to go to work she works 12 hours a day at the university. Her parents live across the street her dad she’s not too worried about he either does construction work like a driveway or something for someone or he works around the house he’s pretty much retired but her mom she worries about. After the shooting that happened in Cleveland last night it said to stay away from windows but that’s impossible for us we have a window right beside our bed even though for us Cleveland is at the top of the state but it still says to be safe just in case also she never dreamed her cousin would have a shooting at his school either I guess everyone is ok. She’s never been so worried for anyone in her life use to she never had to worry about a shooting in Ohio now she does. She has needles I don’t know she can handle being shot also she’s scared of loud noises. Guns really scare her. Her dad use to go hunting he would practice on the porch the loud noise scared her she always covered her ears. She’s really scared she doesn’t know what to do. She’s crying and can’t get back to sleep. How can I help her feel better ?
🤔She knows we are all going to die one day right?
Even if it's not in a shooting, bus crash, or freak accident in the bathroom.

Natural disasters happen everywhere.
Accidents pop up out of nowhere.

The only truth is appreciate today.
Tomorrow is not guaranteed.

Be aware of your surroundings and hope for the best.
Above all tell someone you love them when you see them, because you just are not sure if they will be there by the end of the day.

Life's precious, being worried about the what if's never helps because the what is .. is what will define the overall scheme of things.

If she's so out of it- I'd recommend counselling/therapy.
