A woman was “dead” for 27 minutes, but as soon as she woke up, she wrote a terrifying message…

Tina Hines woke up after almost dying and wrote a scary note for her family and friends.

Tina and Brian, her husband, were excited about a hike close to their home in Phoenix, Arizona, in February of last year.

While they were about to leave, Tina passed out. She had always been healthy.

Bryant says that he got on his knees next to his wife, who had turned dark purple, and started CPR on her.

The mother of four was brought back to life for a short time, but Brian had to do it again before the paramedics arrived.

Tina had to be resuscitated six times before she woke up in the hospital. The team kept losing her during the scary ambulance ride and treatment.

Tina and her family told AZfamily.com that she had been pretty much dead for 27 minutes.

While she was in the hospital, she was intubated and couldn’t talk. But as soon as Tina woke up, she motioned for a pen so she could write her strange message, which she says is about heaven.

Tina Hines wrote “it’s real” in letters that were almost impossible to read. She was talking about the vision of heaven she said she saw while she was “dead” for 27 minutes after having a severe heart attack.

Tina Hines wrote “it’s real” in scrawled letters that were hard to read. She was talking about the vision of heaven she said she saw in the 27 minutes she was “dead” from sudden cardiac arrest.

“It felt so real, the colors were so bright,” Tina told AZfamily.com.

She remembered seeing someone standing in front of dark gates with a bright yellow light behind them. She thinks that person was Jesus.

When her family asked her what was real while she was still being intubated, Tina just “nodded” up.

Tina is thankful that she is still alive and can tell her story.

When someone has an abrupt cardiac arrest outside of a hospital, almost 90% of them die.

CPR done by Tina’s husband, on the other hand, likely saved her life.

The chance of survival after cardiac arrest goes from 10% to over 45% when CPR is given by a bystander. However, women are 27% less likely to get CPR from someone other than a paramedic.

Some of the reasons cardiac arrest can be so deadly is that it can happen at any time.

Even though Tina has never had heart problems or any other health problems, an electrical problem could happen out of the blue and stop her heart in its tracks.

Every year, this terrible health problem affects more than 356,000 people in the US.

A lot of research on so-called “NDEs” says that most people don’t remember the short times they were technically dead, but 10 to 20 percent had “near death experiences” where they saw or felt things.

More research is being done to figure out what happens in the brain when the heart stops, even if NDEs seem mysterious to people who have had them.

After the heart stops beating, blood stops going to the brain.

A small study at the University of Michigan in 2013 on rats, on the other hand, found that something strange seemed to happen right after a sudden cardiac arrest.

Researchers stopped the hearts of nine rats, and just before each one died, they saw a rise in brain activity.

In a dying brain, they describe “a widespread, transient surge of highly synchronized brain activity that had features associated with a highly aroused brain.” This is not just any activity.

Another way to say this is that the brain acts like it is still alive in the first few seconds after the body has died. It might even look like it’s “hyperactive.”

They think that people who have near-death experiences, especially ones that are similar to what they think they will see after they die, may have these experiences because of this sudden, probably conscious, increase in brain activity.

But there is still a long way to go before scientists can prove that idea for sure.

Tina and her family had a hard time reading the writing, but they think the message was clear: paradise is a real place.
