The Story
Mary McDermott, a 28-year-old translator living in New Jersey, had a near-death experience during an assault on Christmas Eve. She went for a drive with a man named Tom, who turned violent and beat her severely in a remote area, trying to kill her. During the beating, Mary left her body. She floated above and saw herself lying on the side of the road in a red jacket, arm raised over her head, looking dead. The attacker kicked her body. Mary felt no pain and understood her true self was separate from her body and always safe. Two men in a car arrived, and she jumped in after banging on the window. They rescued her and took her home. After the event, Mary represented herself in court, getting the attacker sentenced to six months. She learned self-care, became a nurse and emergency dispatcher, saved a teacher's life during a heart attack, cared for her dying mother with love, and now works as a school nurse. She helps traumatized people and inspires children to pursue dreams despite tough situations.

The account describes an OBE during a severe beating where the experiencer saw her body from above with one arm raised and the attacker kicking it, but lacks any verification of these perceptions or attempts to confirm them. Medical severity is moderate from trauma without unconsciousness or clinical death indicators, and there is no information on timely reporting prior to potential verification. Details are moderately specific but predictable in context and lack exceptional precision or unpredictability.
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.
