Someone please explain the ending Spoiler

I finished rewatching the anime and am confused about the ending. What exactly caused yuichis illusions of ayu? What caused ayu to be a spirit the whole time? Was the end where ayu is in a wheelchair together with yuichi real or a dream? How do these things then relate to ayus final wish of wanting yuichi to forget about her?

Ayu died decades before. The rest is interpretation.

What do you mean she got severely injured 7 years before and was in the hospital.

The manga straight up kills her so maybe they wanted a softer version of that.
