17. My sister inlaw flatlined for quite some time.

They saved her by putting her on ice, or something like that. I don't recall the whole story.
When I asked years later, my brother said she had no recollection of afterlife experiences, but maybe that's because her brain took years before it functioned normally.

We visited her in the hospital about a week afterward, and asked her if we should change channels (she had on some show I know she didn't like). She replied, "Oh hi. How are you?" We'd been there for 1/2 an hour.

When I told my own doctor about her dying and being brought back, he told me that Kaiser would probably interview her to see if she had any experiences with the afterlife. He said they usually do. My brother told me they never did ask her questions about that. But again, she was so far gone for a couple years, they probably didn't bother.

My dad was a religious man. He was in the hospital for a heart attack. During the time there, he died and they brought him back. He told me the only thing he recalled was falling asleep, and then waking up to tubes being shoved down his nose and throat. He seemed disappointed that he didn't recall an afterlife experience.

-----------

Personally, I've always been able to have out of body experiences when sleeping if I want. They are very interesting, and one thing I've found is that after a night of an out of body experience, I feel like I've slept deeper than ever. Lots of energy.
