She sent her last message to the woman, "It's okay to go now."

The woman died in peace and happiness.

Sheryl removed her hands, and all the pain and fear she had been drawing in for an hour came rushing up, like a torrent down a river - unstoppable and immense.
An immense burst of psyhic pain went rushing out of Sheryl, and she curled up on the back seat of the wagon as an unbearable sadness overwhelmed her. Exhausted and cold, Sheryl cried her heart out.

When the ambulance and police eventually arrived they helped Sheryl out of the wagon. She sat in the back of a police car, a woollen blanket around her, cupping hot coffee in her trembling hands.

She told them she'd tried. Tried so very hard to help the woman. Told them how the women had died in her arms.
They responded by saying it was her presence that seemed to help. As far as they could tell, the woman, whose name was Diana, had died in peace. Sheryl managed to give them a wan little smile.

Later, after the accident had been cleared, and Sheryl had spent a night in hospital, recovering from shock, and after she gave the police the license plate of the 4WD and a description of its driver, and after that driver had been arrested and charged, some of her fellow empaths came to her home, and together they mourned the necessary passing of a mother of two named Diana Brown.
