Near death experience of Howard Storm

[Pat Mustard]

My husband's mother is a doctor who works at a hospice and she says there have been times when her patients are very close to dying but still conscious, that they claim to start seeing things... like angels, loved ones who have died, etc. I'm not sure what to think of those claims.

A body under severe stress is capable of very strange things. I was once in a house for two weeks alone (stayed at college for the christmas holidays to study). By the end of it I was near paranoid from the lack of outside contact (the only time I'd see another human was the few times I went down to the shop).

It's not all that big of a leap to see somebody who is dying and in pain and goofed up to their eyeballs on a cocktail of medicines start hallucinating, and when they hallucinate they'll take directly from their cultural upbringing. That is why western NDEs are generally christian, middle eastern ones generally either muslim or jewish, Indian ones hindu or muslim and so on.
