Round Trip to Eternity: A True Story of of Survival Against the Odds

"During my Near Death Experience I learned that there is more to us than just our mortal body. It could be what we refer to as 'spirit,' sometimes 'soul,' or even 'ghost.' What this really means is beyond our limited comprehension. This I know: Surviving Sudden Death is a triumph of hope over death and eternal banishment, and my NDE experience is testimony that there is a spiritual part of us that survives death of the mortal body."
From Round Trip to Eternity by Norbert Paas

In 2002 Norbert Paas, while in a restaurant with his wife and son, suffered a cardiac arrest. His heart stopped. Through the heroic efforts of bystanders, ambulance crew and doctors, he survived and eventually recovered fully, though with a persistent memory of what had occurred during the time he was considered clinically dead. After several years of contemplation, he decided to write a book about the experience; for a full year he worked hard on the project, growing increasingly eager to see his words in print.

Norbert Paas passed away shortly before this book was finished. Though he didn't live to see it in print, his words, per his family's wishes, will live on.
