No one believes me, which makes it hard to accept, but in 2022 I choked to death on some Tums. I was changing my kids diaper while chewing the candy- coated tums. I started to gag and then realized I couldn’t breathe. It was terrifying.

I saw the other side. It isn’t that it is dark, it’s that there is nothing. It’s not silent, it’s a lack of sound. I didn’t feel pain, or weight, or containment. I felt peace in the truest form. I had no regrets or emotional pain.

I woke up to my wife doing CPR.

Woke up isn’t the right word. I was pulled away from “it.” I wasn’t there anymore and I was back here.

I don’t want to die again, but I have to tell you it’s not something I’m dreading.
