The Story

ndesurgeryvery_positiveSignificant Transformation⭐ 9/10 Intensity

A woman had a near-death experience two days after surgery. Internal bleeding caused low blood pressure and her vital signs shut down after two years of illness. She lost consciousness from intense pain. She floated out of her body into the hospital hallway at night. She realized she was above her body when looking into a high PA speaker. She returned to her room and viewed her swollen, taped body from above, feeling calm and laughing. She entered total blackness and her deceased grandmother embraced her with warm love. They relived all shared memories. She realized her past beliefs were wrong and this was reality. She moved through darkness toward a forming light with a droning sound, her hands expanding. She returned to her body in the morning. Later, face down and hysterical, she separated again. She saw her crying body and a bubble with her crying baby self. A loving energy presence reviewed her life in bubbles. She experienced events as herself and others, feeling their emotions. She understood all beings are connected. Before, she was an atheist. After, she believed the universe is benevolent and meaningful. The NDE started her search for light in daily life through grief and healing.
