He said: if I could meet you 45 days earlier than I did, it would be awesome.
The way he said it, it made it seem like he just wanted 45 more days with her because he cant have it n the future
It would make a lot of sense that shes dead in flash forwards
Either shes dead or thats the worst episode of HIMYM ive ever seen

I think its just him thinking about how lonely he was then. Marshall and Lily are taking care of the baby, Barney and Robin are planning the wedding, and Ted is all alone. I think its more Ted saying he was miserable during those last 45 days than him saying that she is dead later on

Especially since we've never seen her in any flash forwards.

That would make a shite ton of sense and if true Ted Mosby has just about the shittiest life ever.

No, it wouldn't make sense. I see no way to read this episode as if the mother is now dead. He's just saying that if you love someone, you wish you had as much time with them as possible, even those 45 days. Or 45 seconds.
I can't believe this was such a hard thing to figure out. Additionally, how the hell is this a filler episode? It moved the ball thematically forward. It tethered the audience's relationship to Ted to create his future feelings towards the mother and have them retroactively apply.
It's about love. It stripped away the quirk and got to the core. It's about Ted's love for his wife and his family.
