This blog is more than an account of Near Death Experiences. It ponders in detail the tough questions of life. Who are you, and why are you here in this physical world? What happens when you die, and is there a judgment? However, most anything could appear here. This is not a news blog, archived posts are just as relevant as new posts. Check the boxes at the top of the page for the Contents, Contact, Forum and other links.

I can only say THANK YOU Leroy, for being the special loving soul that you are, and I mean this in regards to everything, but especially to what you are doing for those in need, and for being here amongst us.
When ever I think of you, visit your site, or hear from you, it brings peace and warm feelings and upliftment to my spirit, and I feel so very blessed to find a spot of comfort….so it’s NICE, a gift, probably a sort of agreement we have had before agreeing to this trek here.
Anyways, I am sure you give the same connection to many others, and I just want you to know, so that you know you make a difference, your kind connection encourages me on, so that I might help another, rippling out in our circle of love.
So glad all is well with you. Please keep taking good care of yourself.
I love you my dear friend. Thank you so much for your love and light.

Thank you for your kindness. I’m very science-oriented — I love science. The thing that these NDE skeptics don’t understand is that the credible, CONCRETE evidence is right there — right in front of them. I’m baffled by these folks. Truly.
I have a Ph.D. and was quite focused on neuropsychology. Two things I absolutely know — anoxia does not have the power to change a person profoundly — for the rest of their lives. It only has the power to damage their brains! To argue that anoxia produces this experience is ridiculous, and has no scientific validity.
The other thing is that when a person is clinically dead, there is NO WAY they can have the perspective of looking down on the scene, recalling discussion, activities, instruments, etc., and see what is going on with family members in other locations, etc. How on earth do those folks wish to explain that?
I’m now a professor. I don’t do clinical work any longer, other than helping out individuals on a voluntary basis as they occasionally come to me. My students know I am rock-solid science-based. And I make it clear I am not qualified to teach theology. Then I tell them about NDEs and the solid evidence that these experiences are REAL. I tell them there is no way we can explain NDEs as brain functioning, brain failure, response to medication, etc.
And you know what? I don’t really care what people think. I know they are real — they will learn about this eventually. And I know I’ll have that experience — maybe tomorrow — maybe when I’m 101. Who knows? But knowing about these wonderful experiences is so thrilling and comforting. Strange juxtaposition, but I know you understand. I tell my students about them to give them hope and comfort, to illustrate some of the limits of skepticism, and to encourage them to be open minded. And you know what? Once in a while, one of them has had such an experience. Lovely!
I hope I am doing something good. I hope I am helping people to be the best THEM they can be. I hope I am motivating and encouraging and inspiring them. If I can do that, I will feel my life was well spent.
Peace and love to you — thank you for your kindness. You’re doing some great things.

Supposedly there are a lot of us around, but we seem pretty
scarce to me. I do know one man not too far from me who had a much more in depth NDE than mine. We have been in touch occasionally and that is a help. My NDE happened 9 years ago this April after heart surgery. It was brief as the nurse taking care of me had atropine close by and restarted my heart in about one or two minutes. I have gotten advice and counsel from such as PMH Atwater who responds to emails. When I first got home from the hospital, the light bulbs in our house began to blow out and would blow again as quickly as we would replace them. She helped with that craziness. Since then, I have had many other after effects. Dr. Greyson suggested that I choose carefully the people that I share these with. His explanation is that some people are more opened up by the NDE. It’s these things that I have wanted to talk with other experiencers about. I am a RN but my first degree was in psychology. It sounds crazy even to me. I found a wonderful psychologist who was not scared by the NDE and has been such a help to me, mainly by telling me that I am sane. I share my NDE with anyone who wants to hear about it, but I keep the rest to myself. Does any of this sound like what you have gone through?
I have decided to start a new catagory, and post some of the letters I get from the readers of my site/blog. These letters were not anonymous when sent to me, but they shall remain anonymous when posted in my blog. This is because some of the writers are scientists with important positions, and a lot of other scientists have yet to learn the truth about near death experiences.
Near death experiences are backed up by real, solid research, and are exactly what they seem to be, real spiritual experiences. Unfortunately, science still teaches only a material universe ignoring all the evidence to the contrary. I believe this research on near death experiences, out of body experiences, and other related research will eventually overcome this materialistic nature of science, and science will finally come to recognize the spiritual nature of mankind.
If you would like to send me a letter about your feelings on this subject, please do so by going to the contact page.
Each letter will be a separate post, numbered for convenience.
