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'll try to have a read of your suggestions, jet...I don't know, I guess my thoughts on NDEs are that there could be explainable factors to the unexplainable', which are not there for everyone but are for some...I've read some stories as well because I had a bit of an experience myself once when I was having surgery.../the surgery was brain related so really that I think is a factor also with a coming together or 'brain altering' brief moments and parts of the brain/sub conscious becoming the consciousness and the sub conscious stores so much that we don't even realise, like a photographic memory etc and just so much more, like a central data bank..
...and it's also the thing with those moments of brain altering that a huge cocktail of drugs/anaesthesia is in our bodies as well/and factored in... so in surgery those things that are specific for some can lead (and possibly explain..)... some near death experiences of being so heightened and aware of a situation that it feels as though it's being experienced.../that 's probably a lot of rubbish though, my thoughts...it's definitely one of those things that is quite fascinating though...
