Rich B experienced liver failure requiring emergency surgery. During the procedure to drain fluid from his abdomen and clear his lungs, he hemorrhaged and went into cardiac arrest. He heard someone say "hemorrhage" before experiencing blackness, then was pulled toward a light. He heard the defibrillation attempts ("One hundred jewels" - likely "joules") and felt himself being yanked back multiple times. After being revived with atropine and sodium carbonate, he reconnected with the experience and encountered a being he felt was with him, underwent a life review, and was given a choice to return. He chose to come back for his family. His alcoholism disappeared after the experience and his liver mysteriously recovered without the blockage that had been seen on scans.
--- Biblical Summary --- Biblical elements: The experience included encountering a divine presence or being lying beside him (possibly Christ as suggested by later church sermon about the Good Shepherd), experiencing a life review where he had to make an accounting of himself, being given a choice about his future existence, and undergoing a healing process guided by "feathery entities" near the light. The transformative healing and removal of addiction aligns with biblical accounts of divine healing. Unbiblical elements: The description of "feathery entities" active around the light is somewhat ambiguous and could be interpreted as angels, though the specific description is not typical of biblical accounts.
