Aubrey was 6 years old in 1997 when she underwent her first surgery for a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. During the procedure, her heart flatlined for approximately 90 seconds, an event documented on monitoring equipment. Her mother kept the printout from the cardiac monitor showing the flatline event, providing medical documentation of the clinical death.

During the cardiac arrest, Aubrey found herself soaring or floating through a long, black, tube-like place with the brightest light she had ever seen at the end. Once through the light, she entered a realm of extraordinary beauty featuring full, colorful autumn-like trees more vibrant than any she has found on Earth. The sky was brilliantly blue, the grass was lush and intensely green, and she felt a profound calm with no worries. The colors and beauty exceeded anything she has experienced since, even during meditation or in places known for autumn foliage like Michigan.

The primary observation was the vivid perception of an otherworldly realm with trees, sky, and grass of impossible beauty and color intensity. She specifically noted autumn-like trees with colors that surpassed any earthly equivalent. The experience was characterized by extraordinary visual clarity and a unique quality of peace that has never been replicated. She heard joyful sounds initially and when being pulled back, heard someone say "NO!"

Just as she was getting a good look at everything around her, she was suddenly sucked backwards through the tube of darkness. She felt disappointed rather than afraid at having to leave. The experience profoundly shaped her adult life, transforming her from having no particular beliefs to becoming deeply spiritual, believing in universal connection and that this earthly realm is about lessons while "true living is on the other side." Her mother's retention of the cardiac monitor printout provides unusual medical documentation of the flatline event.
