You did nothing wrong and were just trying your best to help her!. There are many things we just cant control in life, and you shouldnt blame yourself!. Talking about this to friends, family, or a professional may help you ease some of this hurt you've been feeling!. Most important though, remember what happened wasn't your fault!.

It's very hard when we feel responsible for someone else's well being, let alone their life!.
As a volunteer, you may not have many resources right at hand to cope with the trauma you have experienced!. There is help available, you will need to look for it!.
It is not your fault that she died, you are responsible for giving her hope in a hopeless situation, and that is a gift, no matter how long she lived after that!.
If you have a religious preference, please contact a clergy person to assist you!.

It's hard to keep a promise that you can't control!. (You were nice for trying to comfort her)!. It is hard to see someone go especially when you look into their eyes offering a promise!. It is ok to morn!. You did a very nice thing!. Don't beat yourself, remember only God decides to keep or take someone!. Tomorrow is a New Day!. Everyday is a New Day!. You are like a solder ready for a battle!. Cheer up :) And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them!.

Medical workers of any type have to learn how to have a professional emotional distance from their patients!. It was good you encourage the dying woman, she needed hope and no one knew if she'd make it or not!. I think you may be too tender hearted for this kind of work, so you may want to find another field such as nonprofit or social service work where peoples physical lives are not on the line!.
