Teen Wishes To Die But Gets Something Better | (NDE) Near Death Experience
What Researchers Found
The Story
Kelly Turgeon was a 16-year-old girl suffering from lupus, an autoimmune disease that caused kidney failure, heart issues, and severe pain. Feeling hopeless, she prayed for help or death one night. In her dream, she levitated from the ground as friends and family tried to pull her back. She felt peace and knew she was dying but was okay with it. She entered a pure white light that wrapped her in love and bliss. She understood her eternal nature and saw a life review showing how all her experiences were perfect. She felt deep oneness with all consciousness. Then, she yearned to share this love and returned to her body. She woke up healed in her mind and body. She hid her medications and recovered fully in four months, remaining symptom-free for 15 years. This shifted her to a life of joy and purpose. Later, after a heart attack, she moved to Thailand, co-founded an eco-friendly bottle company, and teaches breathwork and meditation to help others.
