A woman left a note to her family claiming she’d been to heaven after she died for 27 minutes before she was resuscitated. Tina Hines, who’s from Phoenix, Arizona, suffered a cardiac arrest back in February 2018, while she and her husband Brian were preparing to go on a hike. When she collapsed, Brian gave her CPR, managing to resuscitate her twice before the paramedics arrived to take over.

On the way to the hospital, she had to be revived six more times by the paramedics, making it a complete 27 minutes that she was effectively dead, as reported by AZfamily.com. At the hospital, she was intubated and miraculously awoke. As soon as she did, she gestured for paper and a pen, and that’s when she wrote the note for her family!

Tina wrote, “it’s real,” in barely legible handwriting, and when she was asked what that was about, she nodded skyward.“It was so real, the colors were so vibrant,” Tina told AZfamily.com. According to Tina, she saw a figure she believed to be Jesus, standing beside bright yellow, glowing gates. Her near-death experience is known as an NDE, and it’s actually quite common.

Although most people don’t remember the periods during which they’re technically dead, there is a small percentage – about 10 to 20 percent – who experience some kind of visual or sensory episodes during this period, according to studies. Although they possess a certain mystery to them, scientists are getting closer to figuring out what happens during the NDEs.

In 2013, University of Michigan researchers conducted a study on rats. The BBC reports that just before death, the brain experiences a burst of activity that is higher than that which occurs during most waking, conscious states. We show that the brain after clinical death is inactive or hypoactive,” says Dr. Jimo Borjigin of the University of Michigan, the study’s lead author and a neuroscientist. The dying process is more active than the waking state, if anything.

Researchers monitored the nine dying rats for 30 seconds after their hearts stopped beating and found a significant spike in high-frequency brainwaves. When information is “linked” between brain regions, these pulses are thought to play a key role in the development of consciousness in humans.

It’s likely that a sudden surge in energy in the brain is responsible for all kinds of “striking” visions and colors, as well as feelings and emotions, according to Dr. Jason Braithwaite of the University of Birmingham. Tina and her family, despite the efforts of scientists, are convinced that a message is being sent: heaven is real. Her niece had the handwritten note tattooed on her wrist, as well.
