A MAN who claims to have stood on the edge of dying is convinced God is real and so is life after death.
The man, who said his name is Gordon, suffered a traumatic head injury at the age of seven, in 1991. Gordon hit the back of his head when jumping into a swimming pool with his two sisters. Shortly after hurting himself, he could sense the right side of his body stopped working.

Gordon was overcome with a burning feeling on the inside while his outside felt “as cold as ice”.
He said: “I remember my grandma showing up and trying to keep my attention.
“If she were not there, I would have passed away. She kept me fighting, awake, and alert.
“Traumatic shock is the body’s response to too much pain because it helps numb the pain.”

Gordon was then taken to the hospital when he endured a so-called out-of-body experience.
He was overcome with a feeling of love and kindness, and all of his senses were heightened.
As he opened his eyes, he was staring down on his body.
Gordon said: “The thing I remember before this was confusion, massive confusion.
“When I opened my eyes, however, I had crystal clear thoughts.
“I felt love, kindness, and peace of mind wash over me.
“All my senses were heightened. I was at peace, and I knew what that meant.
“At the roof of the ambulance, I saw a light. I did not see a tunnel because I was facing my body.
“I saw a light that was shining through me onto the body in the ambulance.”
Gordon then understood he had the choice of returning to his body or moving on into the afterlife.

Life after death: Woman claims she ‘was in the presence of Jesus’
He chose to turn back and the next thing he remembers is waking up in the hospital.
Gordon has described the incident as “entirely pleasant” and it has all the hallmarks of a so-called near-death experience or NDE.
He is now training to become a Catholic priest.
According to Dr Sam Parnia from the NYU Langone School of Medicine in New York, NDE patients often describe similar memories.
He said: “People describe a sensation of a bright, warm, welcoming light that draws people towards it.
“They describe a sensation of experiencing their deceased relatives, almost as if they have come to welcome them.
“They often say that they didn’t want to come back in many cases, it is so comfortable and it is like a magnet that draws them that they don’t want to come back.”
However, there is no indication any of these memories are genuine experiences of the afterlife.
Some medical experts suggest NDEs are hallucinations caused by traumatic injury, insufficient oxygen in the brain or dying brain cells.
In the UK, the NHS does not consider NDEs to be genuine instances of a person dying.
