1. I wish I could get to the whole story without paying for it.

I am particularly interested in how he is challenging his credentials as a neurosurgeon and who Laura Potter is.

NDE's and other reported experiences during comas or anesthesia are fascinating. They are also, of course, hard to either verify or challenge. In the end, they are what they are - unusual experiences experienced when the brain is under duress.

Some people experience them as highly spiritual. Others don't.

At any rate, based on what is available about this, I think the headline is completely wrong. But then again, I don't want to pay for the article.

Did you read it? Can you give any information that would confirm the claim made in the headline?
