The Story

nde medical crisis very_positive Major Transformation 9/10 Intensity

The experiencer was a man who had a heart attack while splitting wood. He felt heavy in his chest and struggled to breathe. After calling 911, he lost consciousness and experienced leaving his body. He entered a white cloud and felt a sense of peace. He recalled memories and emotions associated with loved ones. He then saw a procession of people from his life and felt connected to them. An archangel named Raphael appeared, and the experiencer felt he was part of the universe's workings. He planned his return to life but was pulled back when his daughter insisted on resuscitating him. After the NDE, he felt a new sense of purpose and began sharing his experiences through writing and speaking.
