The mysterious anecdote was shared by Dr Bruce Greyson, professor emeritus of psychiatry and neurobehavioural sciences at the University of Virginia, in his book, ‘After: A Skeptical Scientist s Journey to Understand Life and Beyond’, which looks at NDEs. The woman, named Holly, was treated by the medic while he was serving as a trainee psychiatrist.
However, she went on to develop pancreatitis and became seriously ill.
Her condition deteriorated to the point that she was pronounced dead for nine minutes, as doctors desperately battled to resuscitate her.
Crystal went on to describe an amazing spiritual journey, where she met God in heaven and realised the power of his love.
She described how she was surrounded by a bright light which completely overwhelmed her as she felt the intensity of God s presence.
