When We Die, We Still Live | Nicole Campbell | TEDxDeerPark

On the night before Christmas 2015, I died. I was diagnosed with cavernous sinus thrombosis in the emergency room and within days was hanging in the balance, slipping away. I couldn’t breathe. My heart was racing. And, my body was failing and in pain. I was in a medically induced coma for five days clinging on to life. My blood oxygen level had fallen to near 30 percent. In the coma, I was living in at least two dimensions of reality – traveling at the speed of light, encountering archangels and their messages for me, traveling to distant lands and being guided by an angel in a boat in the darkness of the wide open night sea under a new moon. In that boat, all I could do was just be.
