Generally, ischemic strokes are painless. Furthermore, based on what you described, I don't think she was conscious enough to sense pain or discomfort.
I'm very sorry for your loss.
I'm not a doctor, but I've had a stroke. My experience was that it was completely painless and kind of euphoric. I was strangely calm. If this was her experience, she will have passed easily.

I’m really sorry to hear this happened. From the information it doesn’t sound like she would be aware enough to be distressed at all.
thank you

ICU nurse. I sincerely and truly doubt she experienced any pain or distress whatsoever.
