In 2008, Dr. Deborah King suffered cardiac arrest at home from severe pneumonia. Her husband Bob performed CPR while calling 911. At the hospital, she went into decerebrate posturing indicating severe brain damage and fell into a coma. Doctors used therapeutic hypothermia to protect her brain. During her nine-minute cardiac arrest and subsequent coma, Deborah had a profound NDE. She found herself in a black void, then transported to a night sky with souls connected by an intricate web of colored light. She felt part of this universal web of consciousness. Her deceased ICU patient from 1977 appeared, telling her their meeting wasn't accidental and she must share the story. Her deceased father urged her return. While out of body, she observed her family in the hospital waiting room with a care basket, noting specific contents. Two weeks after awakening, she asked her daughter who brought "that wonderful basket" and accurately described its contents, shocking her daughter who asked "Who told you about that?" Earlier in 1977 as an ICU nurse, a patient in full cardiac arrest later described her appearance, the blood on the resident's shirt, and her exact words "Let's go one more round" that saved him. Fifteen years after her NDE, DNA testing revealed a half-sister she'd never known about - matching the unfamiliar "sister energy" she'd felt during her experience. These multiple verifications across decades confirm her observations during clinical death.
