How do I fix this run together sentence?

Even though Jane Falk, the protagonist was upset at first after finding out that her husband had been killed in a carriage accident and went to up to her room to grieve alone, she stared out the window and thought about all the freedom that she could have now that her husband is gone.

It's not really a run on sentence.

However, it would be easier to read if you made it into two sentences -- . . . alone. She stared . . .

Also -- delete "Even though".
