Isn't that some story, Renee, I keep thinking of it and how she looked as she told it...and how peaceful she was! She even giggled a bit as though she was simply thrilled at all of it!!

I am a nurse, and I understood that when a person was placed under anesthesia, they had NO type of mental awareness at all..if they did, they would feel pain and react to it!!

It is amazing, I agree!

Thank-you Beverly
