Thank God that was just a dream.
So then, you know, 36 hours later, ooh, what's that pain in my abdomen?
Doctors have later told me—not the doctors who saved me, but other doctors who—

Every time I heard a siren, I'd start crying.
Like, I mean, I was just a freaking mess, right?
And then I thought, oh my God, I died in my sleep.
That dream, because I started to read about NDEs, and one of the most common is that you're hovering above your family.
Another is that you see a dead relative, right?
