Her remains will repose at her home on Saturday from 3pm to 7pm. The removal takes place on Sunday to Saint Patrick’s Church, Trim arriving for Mass at 3pm, followed by burial in Saint Loman’s Cemetery. Donations, if desired, to Thrombosis Ireland c/o Heffernan Funeral Directors.
Aisling had been teaching in Dubai, when she collapsed in 2017 and spent most of the next year in the National Rehabilitation Centre in Dublin’s Dun Laoghaire.
While travelling to hospital in Dubai, she suffered multiple seizures and the first of three cardiac arrests which caused serious brain damage.
Her condition was caused by a pulmonary embolism resulting from a DVT (deep vein thrombosis).
The young teacher was flown home from Dubai in January 2018 and had made a lot of progress and was eventually able to return to Trim where she received care at Care Choice centre in Trim.
A statement from St Joseph's Mercy Navan said: "It is with great sadness that we have learned of the passing away of our Science, Maths and Physics teacher, Ms Aisling Brady.
"Her struggle over two years ended peacefully on Thursday 5th March 2020. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a h-ainm dílis."
