Background
Linda was 13 years old when she had a severe asthma attack that led to a cardiopulmonary arrest. The day before her asthma attack, she had used the inhalant as often as every half hour to overcome her wheezing. About midnight she awoke and asked for more medication, which her parents gave her. Several hours later, she woke up screaming. By the time her parents got to her room, Linda had stopped breathing and was blue from lack of oxygen. Her father began administering mouth to mouth resuscitation until a medical unit arrived and injected her with epinephrine, which restored her breathing. She was then moved to the hospital
A description of the experience
Closer to the Light – Dr M Morse
It was a funny feeling. I was in a lot of pain before I blacked out. Then all of a sudden I was looking down at my body! But at the same time, it wasn't like I was really out of my body looking down. I was in it and out of it at the same time.
I couldn't see anything that was being done to my body. I couldn't see the rest of the room or anything. All I could see was myself lying on the floor. Also I had a very peaceful feeling, like nothing had really happened to me at all
