Of course, that alone didn't change my thinking, but the fact that this 48 year old was screaming, 'I'm in hell! Keep me out of hell!' each time he responded to resuscitation efforts did cause me some concern About 50% of the revived persons told of having gone to a place of great darkness, filled w/ grotesque moaning and writhing bodies crying out to be rescued from this place w/ overwhelming feeling of eerie and nightmarish terror," Why these not reported? " cuz are people too embarrassed to admit them and doctors are too embarrassed to make inquiries into such matters. But nobody can afford ignore these reports I'm convinced there s a hell and that we must conduct selves in such way as to avoid being sent there at all costs" 3. Get Saved, Get Busy, Get Active Page 7
