Not really, but someone (who turns out to be a pretty good guy) keeps pursuing the affections of a woman, even though she's clearly rejected him many times in the past. This leads to some unpleasant moments of the kind that may trigger someone who's been stalked.

Not explicitly. But, too my recollection, someone is "a little too drunk" at the bar, and it's hinted that it's not the first time. He MAY have been having some degree of an alcohol problem since his best friend died three years earlier.

No, but there's a scene in which a man gets a little too close to a woman, drunkenly expressing his interest in her despite her having rejected him several times in the past. This may be highly unpleasant for someone who's been sexually assaulted.

A woman suffering from cancer is given oxygen through a tube up her nose in many scenes. At one point she wakes up with a rattling breath.

The mother, who's been sick from cancer throughout the movie, off-screen towards the very end (we only know from seeing a plaque commemorating her). We knew she would; we're told that she's declined chemo, and there's a scene in which she tries to get her eldest daughter to come to terms with the fact that she'll lose her before long. Furthermore, the father died in a car crash three years earlier; we see a few flashbacks from the accident.

Well.... there's a scene outside a hospital (or it may be some sort of a clinic; I'm not sure), where a woman picks up her terminally ill mother from treatment or observation after a fit (for lack of a better word).

A woman of around 60, who's important to the story and is on-screen a lot of the time, has terminal cancer throughout the movie. She's visibly sick, wears a scarf around her head and is constantly given oxygen through a tube up her nose. She gets tired easily and sometimes has to go and rest. We're told that she's tried chemo before and has declined having another round, as she'd rather die from the cancer. At one point we think she's died in her bed, but she wakes up with a rattling breath and is rushed to the hospital (or a clinic), later to be picked up, feeling better. There's a heartfelt conversation in which she tries to help her grown daugther accept that the mother will die before long. Towards the very end of the movie, we learn from a commemorative plaque that the mother has died.

Overall it's a happy ending, but a nice person whom we've gotten to know throughout the movie is shown (commemorative plaque) to have died towards the end.

We see a few relatively short flashbacks of the car crash that killed two of a woman's loved ones. The car they were in (along with her) was rammed from the side by a truck.

No, but there are a couple of indications that someone might shoot someone with her double-barrelled shotgun to defend her property, and at one point she points the gun at someone, then immediately drops it down.
