A woman 10 days overdue was induced with Pitocin at a small community hospital. After receiving an epidural and a second dose from the anesthetist, she experienced a severe reaction - tasting metal, becoming completely numb, and unable to breathe. She went into cardiac and respiratory arrest requiring emergency code blue response.
During the medical crisis, she found herself floating in the upper right corner of the room, observing everything from above. She watched the nurse grab her head, holding her eyes open while yelling "Don't go, don't go, Lori!" She could see the code blue light flashing, people rushing in with a crash cart, and the medical team working frantically on her body below. Despite witnessing this emergency scene, she felt incredible peace and didn't understand why the nurse didn't want her to leave. She experienced a powerful pull toward a warm light on her right side that felt increasingly like home. The light was extraordinary - like looking directly at the sun but without hurting her eyes. She felt pure love and knew with certainty that this was where she belonged. The warmth and peace were unlike anything she had ever experienced. The nurse who held her eyes later confirmed she knew the patient wasn't in her body and verified the exact sequence of events. Following emergency C-section surgery, she survived but suffered complications including a retained surgical gauze that caused severe infection requiring additional surgeries. For years she struggled with anger about having to return, experiencing panic attacks and health issues while keeping her experience secret until a therapist helped her understand it as a near-death experience.
