In March of 2020, Randy Schiefer contracted COVID-19. Within the same month, he was put on a ventilator, emergency intubation, an ECMO machine, and placed in a coma as he fought for his life.

As his health deteriorated rapidly, doctors gave Randy a 3% chance of living. But after convalescent plasma treatment, the support of his family, and 3 profound NDE experiences—Randy lived to share his experiences battling COVID-19.

Key Topics Discussed in this Episode:

• Randy finding out he had COVID-19 - His tragic experience with bilateral pneumonia, emergency intubation, and being put in a cold coma for 4 weeks. “They told my family I had a 3% chance of living.”

• Randy was on a ventilator, an ECMO machine, and he needed convalescent plasma to survive. - Randy’s NDE experiences while in a coma. “After I got to the hospital, I had these experiences I just didn't know how to classify them.”

• How his NDE experiences put him on a religious quest of spiritual discovery. - Going through a sort of peaceful tunnel and exiting in a beautiful room, which Randy describes was covered in gold and stained glass.

• Going back to his physical body and back again to the tunnel that led to the magnificent city two more times—but to different locations.

• How Randy, who was previously a non-believer during his career as a criminal investigator, found validation of life after death.

• Encountering his loved ones in this other realm, but they wouldn’t acknowledge his presence because it was not his time.
