Some Very Real Events

The Coast to Coast radio program hosted by George Nory is not always interesting on a daily basis, but on April 8, 2010, it was over the top interesting. George’s guest was Dr. Jeffery Long, M.D. who got involved in the question, “What happens when we die?” That is the 64 million dollar question. The 120 minute program passed very quickly and was exceedingly informative.

The program was centered around 4 real events as follows:

1. The happy near-death experience (NDE).
2. The fearsome near-death experience (FNDE).
3. The before-death experience (BDE).
4. The after-death experience (ADE).

Millions of people have over the centuries have experienced one or more of these events, so Dr. Long involved himself in the scientific research and validity of these events. His research conclusions verify the actuality and validity of these events, and the revelations discussed during the program were very informative and in many cases quite startling.

During his research he interviewed hundreds of experiences who had one or more of the four events. The most common event is the happy NDE, but he found out there definitely are fearsome NDEs also. Along with validating the NDE Dr. Long verified that all NDEs transform lives in a very positive way regardless of the kind of NDE. The NDE can last for only a few minutes or a very long time. The longer the experience the more is involved in the story being told. The NDE verifies that there is and afterlife, a Supreme Being, a life review, deceased relatives and friends, and a sample of what heaven is like. The fearsome near-death experience reveals the existence of a dark place where no one wants to be.

Dr. Long also interviewed patients who were actually in the dying process. They reported to him the visions of deceased relatives who appeared to them and were going to help them in the transition to the afterlife.

Dr. Long also interviewed surviving family members who had after-death experiences that included the family member who had recently died. There are 12 known types of ADEs. An ADE can happen very soon or years later and at anytime during the day or night.

Dr. Long was very careful to make sure that the NDE was not a product of drugs or hallucination. That was very important because most doctors believe that the NDE is caused by drugs or hallucinations as a result of oxygen deprivation.

The lasting results of Dr. Long’s research are the fact that NDEs are real, that they are comforting, and that they are transformative. His revelation about before death visions of the dying and after-death experiences of the surviving relative family members was also very comforting. The fact that all NDEs help to transform lives in a very positive way is a lasting tribute to the NDE here on earth, as well as enlightening for all of us who have to sooner or later become involved in the dying process itself.
