I wonder if the custom in Vilna to let women say Qaddish is a precedent.
In particular, in the Gra's shul there was no Ezras Nashim, so they said
Qaddish from the back of the room.
R CO Grozhinsky and RYBS both used this precedent for cases beyond
Vilna.
I can't see why Qaddish and HaGomel would be different.
Chodesh Tov!
Tir'u baTov!
