how much pension reduction? help

I am trying to work out a survivor pension for my partners deferred NHS pension with 18 years service (nhs taking ages to give answer) my partner died aged 43 and I am her nominee so should receive 50% also it looks like our two children should receive 50% of her pension and I think a lump sum of 3 years pension payments (I think I understood that right but please correct me if I am wrong) what I would like to know is the NHS Pension site says these are calculated as if she had retired on her date of death in which case she would have retired aged 43 how much would the figure differ or am I not understanding any of this right?
Thanks so much for your help.
