Sorry to hear about Mrs TS.
On the right hand pane of the start menu you should have, among a load of other items, "Documents" and "Recent Items"
If you select Documents you will get all Mrs TS documents.
If you hover over Recent Items you should see a list of her recent docs.
If Recent Items is missing from the start menu.
Right click in a blank area of the start menu and then select properties. Select the Start Menu tab and then under "privacy" put a tick in the Store and display a list of recently opened files box.
Select Apply and OK.
