The Story

nde childbirth very_positive Major Transformation 9/10 Intensity

Elaine Aparecida Cabral Cardozo had a near-death experience (NDE) after suffering from a generalized infection and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). She spent 18 days in a coma. During her NDE, she saw her body from above, encountered a dark spirit, and was comforted by an angel. The angel guided her through a dark path to a peaceful place where she met deceased family members. After her experience, Elaine returned to life and felt a strong sense of purpose. She no longer feared death and wanted to share her message of hope and love with others.

Thank God I came back conscious, knowing everything that had happened ... I remembered everything that had happened until the moment of the coma ...
