could be a change

" An intensive care nurse from Swansea has published an academic book about near death experiences following 10 years of research.
The book is intended for academic study and college libraries.
Near-death experiences were typically often explained away as the effect of endorphins, abnormal blood gases or low oxygen levels, she said.
However, the study measured these and took them into account when researching the patients' reports.

In one case a critically-ill patient, who also had cerebral palsy, awoke from a near-death experience able to use his right arm normally, even though it had been bent and contracted since birth.
"It shouldn't have been possible without an operation to release his tendons, but he could open his arm freely," said Ms Sartori. "

Sooooooooooo ……. Things change ! !


"I don't think it's quite as simple as life after death," she said.
"It's what consciousness is and how we define it. We are entering an exciting time researching consciousness.
"Current science says it is a by-product of the brain. But it may be that consciousness is around us and the brain might be a mediator, an antenna, instead of controlling consciousness.
"It is a fascinating subject and I'm looking forward to continuing my research," she added.
