The experiencer, Bill Tordella, had a near-death experience (NDE) caused by a severe bacterial infection in 1994. During the NDE, he first left his body and felt a deep sense of love. He then traveled through a tunnel of light and met his guardian, Antonia, who introduced him to other spirits, including his deceased brother.
