Everyone has different experiences. When I nearly drowned at the time of my SCI, I was under water for probably three minutes at least. Years of swimming lessons had taught me not to panic if I have a problem in the water, so I didn't. When I realized I wasn't going to be able to surface because I couldn't move, I started saying my goodbyes, and trying not to inhale water. Eventually, I blacked out. I saw no angels, or demons, or anything, but I don't claim that doesn't mean there's life after death - I don't know.
I do know there can be hell on earth, and central pain syndrome is one example. :( Alan -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted by alanh77[at]comcast.net using MR/2 ICE Newsreader #564 Proudly using eComstation 1.21 (OEM OS/2) BBS - The Nerve Center Telnet FidoNet 261/1000 tncbbs.no-ip.com -----------------------------------------------------------------------
