She didn't mention "seeing the light" or past relatives beckoning to her.

Actually, I think I'd be a bit angry. I mean, I've lived all these years, doing a lot of good... Then god wants me to do MORE at that age?

Christ! Can't a woman rest in peace?

Rigor mortis refers to the state of a body after death, in which the muscles become stiff. It commences after around 3 hours, reaching maximum stiffness after 12 hours, and gradually dissipates until approximately 72 hours after death.


So, how long had she been "dead" before she started getting stiff?

I guess that will help us determine the answer.


I can't count the number of times I've been stiff and dead.... dead drunk...

The doctors said she was dead. If they don't know then who does? I really thought y'all might find this interesting and we could have an interesting discussion about it but it seems y'all just want to make jokes. Oh well.

They said Thomas suffered two heart attacks and had no brain waves for more than 17 hours. At about 1:30 a.m. Saturday, her heart stopped and she had no pulse. A respiratory machine kept her breathing and rigor mortis had set in, doctors said.


Do you have a source stating it was 17 minutes and the original report of 17 hours was incorrect?

17 minutes after all of the tubes were removed.


As i said before, and i will say again...

When a person is hooked up to machines that breathe for them, pump blood for them and does all of the other movements that life requires.. that body, that person, is not yet DEAD.
Theri cells are not breaking down
Their body is still warm so there is no decay setting in.

Yes. Brain waves equate to human life, but brain waves are also FUELED( sometimes stimulated, but not completely dependent on ) by oxygen, blood and BODY HEAT.

Her B O D Y was not allowed to die.

If someone who was found on the side of the road with no outside assistance and was deemed to have been dead for 17 hours.. they could NOT SURVIVE if brought back to life.
No way. No how.


The sensationalism this story is getting is all because she wants to talk about god.

There are people who have things like this happen to them ALL the TIME. Yet, if they do not want to speak of god, or do not have the support of a church.. they are not heard.

Google it.
See how many stories there are.

It IS interesting to know that our bodies can do this, but having worked in ER's, this.. does.. not..surprise me. The national news coverage does.

When I was in my 20's, I had a roommate who had many years of experience as an ER nurse. She told me various odd stories of people who seemed to be dead and then suddenly weren't. I always asked her if the patients remembered anything about their state of unconsciousness/death. Sometimes she said they would talk about being with their dead mother, or a religious figure (specific to the person's beliefs), a friend or even a deceased pet, but the vast majority had no memory of anything. Some would wake up happy and others would lash out in anger. Most had no idea that they were even considered dead by the staff and were confused that a sheet was placed over their face. Apparently one declared dead man was being wheeled into the morgue ( a chilly place on many levels) when he suddenly sneezed. The poor intern who was pushing the gurney almost dropped dead himself upon hearing the sound. My roommate thought this story was very funny and often repeated it at dinner parties.

You aren't bothering me Amigo. Not one time have I said I believe this is a miracle. Actually, I don't know what to believe about it yet. Do I believe it's possible it's a miracle. Yes, I do. But to me, a miracle is something that cannot be explained by anything else and I am waiting to see if there is some further explanation for this.

The doctors say rigor mortis had set in. If I remember correctly, rigor mortis starts to set in around 12 hours after death. I understand the machines kept oxygen circulating through her lungs but the doctors say she was dead. They were ready to harvest her organs. That sounds pretty dead to me.

I actually find it more scary than interesting.

To me it further emphasises that we humans, even doctors, make mistakes. In this case it would have been a huge mistake.

As a child I heard something about people being buried alive. I contemplated the "olden days" when medicine was not as advanced and wondered how many people... brrrr. It kept me awake many a night.

Then I moved on to wondering if vampires were real and... what if....

Maybe I was a weird kid.
