Wa-alaykum-us-salaam,

May Allah make give her relief during this difficult time. Ameen.

Allah knows best brother but you can refer to this below:

Make sure that she is encouraged to utter the affirmation of faith, and this could be of related reading in terms of continually exhorting the person (and how it might difficult for the person to continually utter it).

I do not know of any other specific Surah's to recite in this situation. If the person is able, and if not, make sure everyone else is making supplication, calling upon Allah by His most beautiful Names to give her ease/relief in this difficult situation, that the pangs of death are eased upon her, that when the Angels of death come for the soul that they are in a beautiful form to meet her, that she leaves this world in peace. Make these supplications in the Salaah, in prostration, before the end of the prayer, after the prayer, and in the middle of the night.
