Story
Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. A highly trained neurosurgeon, Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress. Then, Dr. Alexander’s own brain was attacked by a rare illness. The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion—and in essence makes us human—shut down completely. For seven days he lay in a coma. Then, as his doctors considered stopping treatment, Alexander’s eyes popped open. He had come back.

Story
At the age of 31, Betty Eadie died after routine surgery. The events that followed can only be described as the most profound and extensive near-death experience ever recorded. During the time she was clinically dead, Betty was given knowledge of the afterlife that would make even the greatest skeptic think twice. As she traveled through the spiritual realm, she learned more about the laws and history of the universe than perhaps anyone before her.

Story
Suffering from severe spinal and head injuries, Rynes knew she was dying. At that moment, she underwent the first of two life-changing near-death experiences - her consciousness split between her frightened, injured self lying on the road, and an impartial, peaceful observer-consciousness who watched as first responders fought to keep her alive. Her second, more lengthy near-death experience came days later, during the surgery that attempted to repair her traumatized spine.

Publisher's Summary
A kayak accident during a South American adventure takes one woman to heaven — where she experienced God’s peace, joy, and angels — and back to life again.
In 1999 in the Los Rios region of southern Chile, orthopedic surgeon, devoted wife, and loving mother Dr. Mary Neal drowned in a kayak accident. While cascading down a waterfall, her kayak became pinned at the bottom and she was immediately and completely submerged. Despite the rescue efforts of her companions, Mary was underwater for too long, and as a result, died.
To Heaven and Back is Mary’s remarkable story of her life’s spiritual journey and what happened as she moved from life to death to eternal life, and back again. Detailing her feelings and surroundings in heaven, her communication with angels, and her deep sense of sadness when she realized it wasn’t her time, Mary shares the captivating experience of her modern-day miracle.
Mary’s life has been forever changed by her newfound understanding of her purpose on earth, her awareness of God, her closer relationship with Jesus, and her personal spiritual journey suddenly enhanced by a first-hand experience in heaven. To Heaven and Back will reacquaint you with the hope, wonder, and promise of heaven, while enriching you own faith and walk with God.

Enlightening and Thought Provoking
A very easy listen. I enjoyed listening to this book on my way to and from work. I found myself excited for my commute which is rare lol I really enjoyed what she had to say about our purpose in life and how we need to trust God to guide us in everything we do. What intrigued me most was the topic of coincidences and how when we notice a coincidence to really pay attention because that is more than likely God's hand in our lives. Overall a really good book.

Beautiful
Mary's description is perfectly in line to my sister's experience. It is totally believable because I have heard it told and described similarly. Talking with Jesus, riding with her, answering her questions and therefore Mary need not feel embarrased to explain that she too was talking with Jesus. He is capable of talking with more than one person from this earthly life. Discribed as total love and acceptance.... the bible speaks of people who walked with God, that means walk and talk. Good Book, I'd wish everyone would read it. They may well find the strength to go on.

Revives your spiritual skepticism
I have spent nearly 4 hours listening to her story via audiobook while I am on my bed on a Sunday morning with what it would seem like a mild cold. Her story was profound in some parts, I like the occasional biblical references that she states, reminding us that our journey here is temporary.
