Everything this woman said made no sense medically. She had to have completely made her story up. I do like your podcast but please don’t bring people on without at least speaking to someone with knowledge to validate that what she says happened actually makes sense. The story about performing CPR after the doctor declared someone dead would never happen. Heparin isn’t given to someone who has been in an accident as she described. Totally made up. Very disappointing
Never would’ve thought I’d be so tuned into a podcast about death! The way the (otherwise terrifying) topic is approached from such a unique and judgement free prospective is so refreshing.
Loving this podcast - like the way the presenter lets the guests tell their stories without feeling the need to take over, but guides the conversation with questions and keeps an open mind.
