Listen and enjoy and share with us your thoughts about this amazing medical case. I have NEVER seen anything like it in my career and neither has anyone that I know in medicine.
This is a story of a patient that I cared for whose heart stopped beating but continued intermittently to respond to us as we tried to get his heart to start beating again.
The term N.D.E. (Near Death Experiences) is somewhat of a misnomer. A truly N.D.E. is when a patient is declared brain dead and comes back to tell of their experiences. This is a case of a N.D.E. in which the patient was not declared brain dead but was clinically dead-no heart beat.
BTW-A GREAT book on the topic of N.D.E. and the notion of humans having a brain and a mind–being material and immaterial–also known as substance dualism is Beyond Death by J.P. Moreland and Gary Habermas.
