Death is a phenomenon that instills fear in people, because no one knows what happens after death, and death is often linked to pain.

Dr. Laurin Bellg is a critical care physician, and throughout her career she has come across several patients who died but came back. From the patients she talked to, she concluded that death was not just seeing bright light at the end of a tunnel or crossing over a threshold. These patients all shared a somewhat similar narrative. They came out of their body and experienced things that would otherwise have been impossible to experience.

First Encounter

The first time she came across a patient who experienced being out-of-body was when she was an intern after graduating from medical school. She met a patient named Samuel who was refusing surgery to fix his twisted bowel.
