As to speculation Niamh, that's 'the nature of the beast' here, because on a host of subjects - not just religious ones - we cannot know but can only air speculative opinion. So my speculative opinion is no less valid than yours.

Why not Christ? "He's" a well known saviour type figure(who she'd obviously had some sort of experience with before as the vision was a memory of some handkerchief she saw as a kid), no matter who she envisioned you could say "why him/her?" If you're in a situation where you think you're going to die and you're scared about that then logically speaking a deity of some sort would be the ideal comfort to reach for, don't you think?
I never said your speculation was less valid than mine, I'm simply pointing out that everyones mind is different, everyones way of coping with situations is different
