Michael A NDE

Experience Description

I was floating in a nonphysical form toward a blue/purple gas planet. I felt so much love and understanding words cannot express. My second image, and it was one of the most realistic feeling, I was there in physical form riding on the front of an old sailing ship. I could smell food cooking and I felt the presence of something telling me I need to 'Go back and learn to LOVE the right way.'

I woke up in pain and in the intensive care unit. I was in a coma for twenty-one days. The medical reports stated that I had died twice. Once when the paramedics put me in the ambulance and I was on my way to the emergency. The second time the doctors revived me was eight days later during my chest surgery. The doctors told me upon my release date that I should not be walking or talking, they said I was a true miracle. There are many more details and I have my medical document to prove my accident.
