Hi everyone! I just wanted to gently remind everyone that Dawn has sadly passed away. Let’s please be mindful and respectful in our comments, as her loved ones may still be grieving and could come across this thread. Your understanding and compassion during this time are greatly appreciated.

Sorry my bad but I don’t believe in god or the so called power of prayer or seeing the light etc. I was bought up in a catholic household went through all the usual blah blah blah. I won’t do it again my apologies if I offended anyone. 🌞

With due respect I’d be interested in what sort of experience you had, only if you’d like to that is ?

I was haemorrhaging and after a miscarriage and needed emergency surgery. While I was waiting to be taken into the operating room I kept passing out due to blood loss. I then heard my grandmother telling me to stay awake and to please hold on. I asked hubby why can I here nan. I then said I was dying and that I loved him and to keep our kids close to him.

I was rushed into surgery , while I was in surgery I saw whom I knew was my mother inlaw ( I never met her she died in a car accident 3 years before I met hubby) she told me to give her the baby and she would keep it with her and that I needed to go back. I remember she looked like an angel and we were in a room that was peaceful and pure. That's they only way I can describe it.

I heard my husband saying Sula please wake up and then someone saying she can't hear you. This actually made me wake up. I was on life support.
After they removed it, I told hubby about my dream. He then cried because he explained how I actually died 3 times during surgery from an anaephylactas.
I died for 9 min 11 min and 7 min.

I was a proclaimed atheist. Then everywhere I looked I came in contact with so many Christians from different denomination and then I realised their was a God and he was trying to show me the way

First of all thank you for sharing ,sometimes the explanation is there is not a tangible one..in my case the complete loss of the full nervous system certainly started a unique journey into the unknown and still to this day I’m asked to give a talk to inhabitants of the two hospitals I rotated through .. clinically dead twice within a 24 hr period mi you a lot of what happened I’m remembering from other people’s accounts as for some time I was completely oblivious to all n sundry to what lied ahead ..I was found unconscious in the driveway of our house there I was resuscitated and then the repeated performance in the ambulance via my trip to hospital one of many,spent 3/5 weeks on life support and memories within a memory such as jungled path of unexplained instances of happenings and to this day sort of frustrate as I’ve got no idea it’s simply left all the medical experts 🤣 without answer and the kicker I won the decision by one vote to “ beat the button. So to speak .. Two nurses given commendations for their undying attention to bringing me along this amazing road back to life .. Just one example I was told I’d be on kidney dialysis for any number of years due to what the body went through well I lasted 6, 4 hr sessions and the kidneys returned to full function showing no signs of past damage, again no medical opinion offered

Wow that would have been frightening for your family.

Im allergic to 3 muscle relaxants and the 3 common ones, suxamthonian, Rocurodian and one other. I never knew I was and that's what caused the anaephylactic reaction.
The anaesthetist came to see ne two days later and she told me that I died 3 times. She said when she heard I had 9 kids and that I was only 35 she said she fought for me abd told me I gave her, her first grey hair.

She is now head Anaesthesist at St George hospital Sydney. She said it was very rare for someone to make it. I had testing done under professor Fisher at Royal North Shore and even had more testing 5 years ago before more surgery

Yes it got to the stage where immediate family were called in as it was agreed all that could be done had been and the 4 specialists present the time had come all to be overridden by the chief neurologist of the Royal Melbourne hospital whom called for another 24 hrs where it all went “ left field “ things happened that apparently had no right too ..post all of this trauma my new tools consisted of a 4 wheel walking apparatus a motorised scooter and walking cane as my left foot failed to reactivate hence no nerve at all but over time I’ve lost all 3 through sheer grit to use the past to strengthen the future.. And I’m awfully glad she fought so hard for you allowing us to have you here 🌹🌹
