During cesarean delivery, Ana Carolina experienced complications when the anesthesiologist left the room to answer his phone. Blood flow was interrupted from the baby's weight on the vena cava artery after spinal anesthesia. She tried to alert the nurse but her spirit shifted back from her body like removing a mask. She heard the vital signs monitor flatline and stood beside her body watching medical staff work frantically. The anesthesiologist returned, swearing nervously, and ordered 5mg ephedrine be given immediately. Ana then found herself on a white hospital bed in an all-white place feeling indescribable peace. In the distance she saw many people dressed in white grouped together as if in a meeting, though none noticed her. She knew she wasn't supposed to be there. Upon hearing her baby cry, she felt pulled back rapidly into her body with a burning sensation rising from legs to head.
