Overview
- Louisa Peck says she went into cardiac arrest at 22 after overdosing on cocaine reportedly cut with lidocaine in a New York nightclub.
- She reports being unresponsive for about three minutes before coming to as a bartender performed CPR, then taking a taxi home instead of waiting for an ambulance.
- Peck describes a vivid vision of flying, meeting ancestors, entering a light she calls "divine love," and hearing a voice say she was "not done yet."
- She attributes later experiences to the episode, including seeing a ghost in 1987, sensing an unborn nephew would die in 1993, and receiving a prompting as her sister died in 1997.
- Peck says the events shifted her from atheism to spiritual belief and sobriety, and she has published a book titled "Die-Hard Atheist: from NDE Denier to Full-on Woo-Woo."
