She Left Her Body & Got Pulled Into Dark Place
What Researchers Found
The Story
Susan, a 65-year-old woman, experienced an NDE after passing out due to low blood sugar. During the experience, she felt a separation from her body and saw herself on the floor. She entered a dark, warm space and then a place filled with transparent people. She felt their confusion and communicated without words. Susan then felt a strong pull away from a comforting presence, which terrified her. She returned to her body and felt euphoric instead of drained. After the event, her autoimmune disease went into remission, and she began to feel a spiritual connection to everything. She now embraces life, expresses love to strangers, and no longer fears death.
“have no memory of talking to anyone. I knew that these people were confused. I felt their confusion. I know I was given answers, but I don't remember. I wanted to know why I was there.”
