and they didn't want to come back to this world...
One phenomenon which really interested me was how some people had died on the operating table, floated out of their bodies and out of the operating room, and when they were brought back to life were able to recount seeing their relatives in another room in the hospital, what they had been talking about word for word, what the doctors were telling them, what everyone had been doing etc to everyone's astonishment. How can that be explained? It's all very fascinating, I think.

I have had a deep interest in this subject (among others) for decades and read similar books and articles, and watched dozens of documentaries on it.

There is just TOO much evidence - testimony from genuine honest ordinary people from all walks of life for it to be so easily 'pooh-hood' away.
