finding the subject

"The sustenance the healthy thirty-year-old wife proved incapable of providing her
ailing fifty-six-year old husband was more than compensated for by Howie's jovial support"

this sentence is from "eveyman" by Philp Roth
im having a hard time finding the subject
"the sustenance" and "the healthy wife"
It seems like they both are subjects and it doesnt make sense if so

Do not double-post, roganno. It wastes our time.
