STORY EXCERPT

Slouched in the wheelchair, I felt myself leave my body. Just like that, I was floating near the ceiling, looking down at myself. I had no attachment whatsoever to my physical body. I remember thinking, completely dispassionately, Well, if they don’t do something very quickly, it’s going to die. It was as if I was looking at a pair of socks on the floor and had to decide whether to wash them or throw them away. In that state, I traveled to the room where doctors were consulting about me. They were terrified, not only about my condition but also about malpractice issues. I later verified much of that conversation with one of the doctors who was there.
