My brother is here but he is asleep.
I dont want to wake him because he panics
I have put a cool flannel on her face and neck. She twitched a bit
Her pulse is still going really fast
Sometimes she stops breathing for a few seconds (thats a sign i think) so I will monitor that, and if it gets any worse I will wake him

Yep. Perfect Starts. Just make her comfortable, just as you would make yourself comfortable.
There is a particular pattern called Cheyne Stoking which is alternating shallow and deep breathing, and sometimes they stop breathing in between these patterns. This is typical with unconcious people.

Just keep her comfi and let it happen Starts. You've done all you can and more.

Starts, this is an honour just like BB referred to. You have created a loving environment for her transition. To have had the opportunity to share your love with her is too precious.

I was on a plane heading to say my goodbyes to my mum, but didn't make it.

You are very special and that's why this thread is full of love and respect.:l:l
