I immediately saw it was bad. I called 112 (similar to your 911) and after I called my wife stopped breathing The ambulance was within 10 minutes at our home at started reanimation. They tried long and just when they wanted to stop they got a heartbeat/rhythm.

She was brought to the hospital, but the damage was to big and finally she died in the afternoon. 

After some time I went home with family. When I was sitting in the chair suddenly I felt a moment of great peace, it felt if I was told that it was good.

I liked the moment of it also made me confused because I felt almost happy.

Later it helped me a lot. 

I have to say that I already believed in life after death and I already read books at that time.
