[Cyprus Times] She was dead for 40 minutes after a cardiac arrest! (video)

Doctors were stunned and could not imagine what had happened

On 29 January 2021, Christy Bortoff, 49 years old, who is a meditation teacher, had returned home early and was waiting for her 47-year-old partner to spend a romantic evening.

Upon returning home, Stu found her unconscious on the couch with her eyes wide open and her skin bright red in places, while her laptop had left her hands and was lying on the floor, reports the New York Post.

She began to fear for her life. She immediately called an ambulance and began CPR, and when paramedics arrived, they used a defibrillator to restore her weak heartbeat. She was then taken to the hospital and doctors put her in an induced coma to stabilize her.

@kirstybortoft I died and this is why I do not overthink any more! When you get a second chance at life you do not waste it on overthinking things with thoughts that are not facts, and are automatic and out of your control!

"Expect the worst."

"He put me on the floor and started CPR while on the phone with emergency services," Bortoff recalls.

Bortoff, who is a mother of three, stopped breathing and doctors tried to save her - but she was only given less than a 6% chance of survival.

Had she lived, she would have suffered reasonably severe brain damage because all her organs were functioning thanks to the medical machines. Doctors told her family to "expect the worst."

The meditation teacher shared her "spiritual experience" online, with a TikTok video, and claimed that the 40 minutes she had "died" was "a magical experience" and that it seemed that meditation "not only heals the soul" but also "literally saves".

Indeed, well, after a short time and after many doctors had been mobilized, Bortoff not only recovered, but has no health problem, since all her organs were functioning normally.

The doctors were stunned and could not conceive what had happened, according to her. So, Bortov published her story in a video on TikTok.
