Part of Healing Is Dying

Being a ghost and visiting multiple places at once; experiencing vivid delusions that felt like nightmares; feeling life slipping away and death arriving; sensing the power of prayer and saying goodbye to loved ones—this is just a glimpse of what Andrés went through while intubated in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at a clinic in Bogotá.

After more than two months of treatment, doctors decided to disconnect him as his body was no longer responding. At that moment, he suffered a cardiac arrest lasting eight minutes. He describes how his consciousness detached from physical suffering and transitioned into another state, where he experienced an NDE that he remembers in great detail.

In this interview, Andrés shares what he learned, his insights on death, how his perception of God has changed, and how he lives his life today.
