The Not Very Near Death Experience

Pam Reynolds Case

Suffered a brain Aneurysm, had to undergo a complex surgical procedure where her heart was stopped. All measurable output given off by the brain was non existent.She was devoid of sensory input. During such a state hallucination is impossible, as is dreaming. She was for all intent and purposes clinically dead. During this procedure she reported a typical near death experience, where she accurately described the unique tools used to perform the surgical procedure and the conversation between the doctors during the procedure. Her NDE account was recorded and details verified by said doctors. I have been studying NDE accounts for a while and the most damning evidence in it favor is the consistency of the accounts across cultures and beliefs systems. If this is an hallucination why are there consistent themes in almost every account? From 5 year olds to 80, atheist and theist, people with and without the knowledge of NDE's report the same consistent themes.
