The Story
Sharon Levitus was a veterinary technician who got hit by a bus while riding a bike to her graduation party. The accident caused severe brain damage and her near-death experience. During the NDE, she rose up and saw her body lying in the street. She felt deep peace as she ascended. Her entire life played out in a fast-forward review from birth to the accident. She talked with God, thanked him, and was told she had to return for a reason. She also sensed Jesus' disciples around her. After the NDE, Sharon lost most of her childhood memories, leading to confusion, blackouts, and time in psychiatric hospitals where she was overmedicated. She recovered using natural vitamins and therapy. She gained psychic abilities, like prophetic warnings and helping a dying man revive in a supermarket. She feels like a caretaker between worlds, focuses on helping others, and finds purpose in empathy and love despite ongoing challenges.

The NDE features a single vague OBE claim of seeing one's body in the street while rising up, with no specific details, verification attempts, or corroboration; medical severity is high due to bus trauma and brain damage, but perceptual access is only moderately impossible and entirely unverified/unpredictable.
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.
