Pam Reynolds' NDE--the "clicks": Continuous or discontinuous?

She was monitored all the way through the operation. No anaesthesia awareness was detected, Raf, the surgeons who conducted the operation have told us this.

Burst suppression eliminates that possibility anyway. If anaesthesia awareness had occurred, the surgeons wouldn't have been as perplexed as they were by her report. In other words, some of the mystery would have been removed. Furthermore, she would have been terrified, lying there helpless and awake, having the roof of her eye socket sawn open and her groin cut open at both sides.  

The case is absolutely solid and always was. However, dishonest/conniving pseudo sceptics and ideological debunkers have manged to plant misinformation all over the web about it. Keith Augustine specialises in it.

It's up to everyone who is interested in the facts to accept them as they are. Materialists never will.  It doesn't "prove" life after death, of course, but Pam Reynolds was dead by every medical criteria (during standstill) and her NDE continued without a break. People can draw their own conclusions.

Yes, the idea that AW could end up into some sort of "heavenly" experience is also a bit misleading. Most accounts of AW have in them terror, panic, difficulty breathing, or even tremendous pain if you are really unlucky. There has been people emerging from that experience with their minds forever scarred, suffering from severe PTSD. A few even commited suicide after that event. At the very least, the experience is either neutral or just slightly distressing. I've never read about pleasurable AW experiences.

Gerry says that opiates made her experience us blissfull, but honestly i don't think it makes for a convincing answer. Also, if she wasn't under burst suppression, how were opiates in circle inside her body and in a dose so massive to let them feel so at peace while literally getting her skull cracked open like a coconut? I mean, that procedure is horrible and messy. Also, I don't get how opiates made her able to "filter" the intense noise in her ears, maybe they can help tolerate the noise, make it a bir more pleasant, but they don't suddenly turn you into daredevil.
