A change in breathing pattern is significant during the dying process. When the exhalation (out-breath) is longer than the inhalation (in-breath) this is a sign that the dying process has begun (even weeks before actual death).
Some of the signs of brain death include: 1  The pupils donât respond to light. 2  The person shows no reaction to pain. 3  The eyes donât blink when the eye surface is touched (corneal reflex).  The eyes donât move when the head is moved (oculocephalic reflex).
