M.K. “Kathy” McDaniel was diagnosed with acute respiratory distress syndrome, lung failure, and doctors told her that she had about a 38 percent chance of surviving. They put her in a medicated coma and told her and her family to hope for the best.
In her comatose state, she says she had a vivid near-death experience (NDE). She believes she saw the depths of hell, but also got a glimpse of heaven, and the experience has changed her. She told her story in an interview with “Explore The Extraordinary,” a podcast presented by the International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS).
