She saw the light!
Kudos to who ever took away that eight hour ban on making a post


I want to share this with yall.


The other night I was working the med-surge floor.
Had a patient die.
She was dead for about six minutes!
Artificial breathing and cardiac massage was being applyed this whole time by myself and others who came to the "code-blue"
We brought her back from the brink of no return.
She is doing fine now.

Later that night I asked her what she remembered and she told me she saw everthing in the room from the ceiling and then she was going down a long tunnel of light before she got to the end of the tunnel she"felt a pulling back in the tunnel" and woke up and saw my friend Harold(fellow nurse) first.
"I thought he was an angel" she told me.



I have have been lucky to have met three other people who have told me the same thing.


I believe her when she said she heard and saw everything becuse she described everthing that happened in detail to me.


YEA! I believe her



Doc

You don't have to explain.


I am at a loss as to why this story would affect you this way.

He served in vietnam. However deep down he is a really good person and i think that his "vision" was nothing more than him feeling guilt. Nothing more.

Not real dead dead. Just almost completely dead.

Some cynics explain this common phenomenon as the result of oxygen starvation of the brain.

I prefer Doc's explanation.

Let's see...

She wasn't actually dead. She apparently had her sensory inputs systems functioning. She could relate her sensory experiences after her output capabilities were functioning again.

This is odd?

Cripes... that could mean that there is life after death!

Not good times.

That reminds me of a joke that Mormons tell each other.

A man dies and goes to Heaven. When he gets there, St. Peter gives him a tour. At one point they come to a large wall and St. Peter gives the man the "Shhhh" sign. When they pass, the man asks, "What's on the other side of that wall?"
"That's the Mormons. They think they're the only ones here."

They say your brain becomes overactive just before you die because of shortness of oxygen to the brain or something like that. Ugh.. If I could explain the process, I wouldnt have withdrawed form my neurology class.
