Vania Valtriani: “What have you done with my gift?”
What Researchers Found
The Story
Vana Valani, a 45-year-old woman from Sao Paulo, Brazil, suffered a major hemorrhagic stroke while dancing at a Brazilian party on June 21, 2014. Doctors gave her little hope due to severe brain damage. During her four-day coma, she left her body and watched doctors operate on her from above. She felt peace and saw a bright light near her feet. Her deceased father appeared, looking calm and young, and communicated love telepathically. She chose to return to her body. Back inside, she felt intense pain and prayed for help. Jesus appeared on her left side, held her hand, and spoke in her mind. He praised her son's missionary work, called her husband faithful, and repeated three times that everything would be all right. His love healed her completely. After recovery, Vana hid the experience for ten years until Jesus urged her to share it. She wrote the book 'Jesus and Me, My Oldest Friendship' in multiple languages to spread her message and focus on eternal life over worldly distractions.

The NDE occurred during a severe 4-day coma from a hemorrhagic stroke, with an OBE providing vague views of medical staff and self on the operating table, lacking specific details. A hospital report later verified left-side paralysis, correlating with Jesus holding her left hand, but no confirmations of OBE visuals or other external events. Immediate reporting to husband upon waking strengthens temporal credibility, though veridical claims are limited.
Score reflects verifiable perceptions reported. A low score indicates the experience was primarily spiritual or subjective, not that it didn't occur.
Score reflects transformation as described. Domains scored 0 indicate the topic was not discussed, not that no change occurred.
