Last I’d heard she was brain dead. What a terrible tragedy.

FOX has been reporting the same thing. A doctor they had on said that when someone is brain dead they are dead. It is very sad. They said she has two sons, but I haven't heard their ages.

“They said she has two sons, but I haven’t heard their ages.”

News report yesterday said 13 and 11. Makes this so much sadder.

We won’t know till there’s been an autopsy, but I can’t imagine a fall on a beginner slope that she walked away from could itself cause brain death. Seems to me she could have had a mini-stroke/aneurysm or something of that order that caused the fall, then it came on stronger later. But then I’m not a doctor or a skier.
