Pietro Probable NDE

Experience Description

The pain has ceased. I felt a feeling of peace and total wellbeing. The feeling was like falling into a gray fluffy blanket. I could see a light that slowly died away or moved away. It reminded me of like the old televisions when they switched off.

Then I woke up with a doctor while he was putting a mask on my face that didn't allow me to breathe, and I realized that I have had a wild ventricular fibrillation.

Everyone was very frightened, and it seemed a foolish thing to me, because when I was dead I was fine and therefore there was no reason to be frightened.
