What happens to the human mind when a patient is placed into a medically-induced coma? Unless you have already been there, everything in this series will come as a shock. In this episode, we hear Isobel's Story. She spent two months in coma but experienced a never-ending cycle of alternate lives, all utterly horrific and all ending in her murder. These are not 'coma dreams', hallucinations, or any form of delirium. What's happening here defies all medical and scientific understanding. Warning: Some listeners may find this episode deeply disturbing.
Coma and Near-Death Experience: The Beautiful, Disturbing and Dangerous World of the Unconscious, available from all good bookstores, including Amazon and Barnes & Nobel, in paperback, e-book and audiobook.
