Dying to See: The Near-death Experiences of Janet Tarantino (sees future & meets Jesus)
What Researchers Found
The Story
Jan, a woman with a Christian background, had three near-death experiences. The first at age 15 was triggered by severe illness. She left her body, saw two tunnels with a watcher angel like a sumo wrestler and a beautiful woman who was her future daughter Gina, riding in on heavenly music. They communicated, turned into orbs, and she returned. The second at age 38 came from a car accident. A voice told her to lie down; she left her body, watched the crash from above through clouds, felt angels holding her, and returned unharmed. The third occurred later from breathing trouble due to allergies. She left her body, saw a silver cord and blue energy depart, became an orb, met Jesus who invited her home, embraced God's light, viewed life moments including future events for her son Kurt, decided to return after seeing angels and hearing 'Love is the only thing that matters.' After these, Jan wrote the book 'Dying to See' to share her experiences, deepened her faith, and focused her life on spreading God's message of unconditional love and life's purpose.

The account includes some veridical OBE perceptions, such as seeing the rear window shatter and glasses displaced during a car accident from an elevated vantage, later confirmed. However, medical crises lack clinical death confirmation, details are somewhat predictable and few in number relative to spiritual visions, verifications are vaguely self-reported without specifics, and no evidence of prompt pre-verification reporting limits the strength.
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.
