TMZ has obtained information about Natasha Richardson's ambulance ride in New York to Lenox Hill Hospital -- she was "unconscious," her pupils "non-reactive," her skin was "pale" and she was suffering from "major head trauma."
We're told her husband Liam Neeson held her hand the entire time and caressed her face as he sat in silence.
We're also told when the plane landed in New Jersey, medics on board told members of the ambulance team that Richardson was "brain dead."

Profoundly sad, however she must have had some pre-existing condition for such a relatively benign event to cause such significant trauma.

This is so tragic. It's a loss to all of us, but especially her friends and family. I don't know how they'll be able to bear it.

This is just terrible news! I can't believe it. Why in the world would anyone let Natasha go skiing without a helmet!
I am praying that Natasha will pull through, even though Astrologically -- things look rather bleak :( Much love and healing to the Redgrave and Neeson Families -- especially the two boys! Blessings, ~Voxx~

"We're told her husband Liam Neeson held her hand the entire time and caressed her face as he sat in silence."
That is just about the most bittersweet and heartbreaking thing I've heard in a very long time. My heart goes out to her family.

A total violation of patient confidentiality to give out "vital signs" information. Sounds like someone was reading directly off an ambulance call report.
In any case, my heart goes out to the family.
