Answer
Hi,

Mice can suddenly die of strokes, heart attacks, and organ failure just like people can.  Your other mouse definitely had nothing to do with it.  The twitching happens when mice die of anything.

Your other mouse needs a friend as quickly as possible.  Until then, make sure you hold her at least an hour a day.  Mice can get very depressed and die of depression, or of illness caused by immune system weakness caused by depression.  The best way to keep girl mice in in threes.  That way when one mouse dies, the others are not alone and you have time to replace the third mouse.  If you don't want more mice then you need to continue to hold her for at least an hour a day, because you are her only friend.

I'm so sorry about your loss.
