I don't think she took your place or anything, it seems it was a premonition thing about her dying and it could have been like her saying to you "will you just watch out for my kids for me" Don't know how close you were but that is how I interpret that.

When you think about it there is only one thing that is absolutely certain in life, and that is death. Buddhism teaches that in order to live your life you need to accept that, then each moment become precious and you appreciate the meaning of the life you have. Buddhist monks live as if their next breath will be their last, before bed everynight they perform certain rituals as they may never wake again. It isn't morbid or anything like that it is just their way of appreciating their life and accepting the inevitability of their death. There is no fear, they just prepare for it and accept it. Its quite beautiful actually.
