The book is an account of Jean's Near-Death Experience with God. Jean died on August 26, 2013, and was given another chance at life on August 28, 2013, thanks to the expertise of Dr. Jeff Rayl at the New Ulm Medical Center and Dr. Tim Henry at Abbott Northwestern Hospital in the cities. Jean's life was saved not only because of the medical care she received but also due to the support of her husband, Rod, daughters, sisters, parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, church, co-workers, friends, and neighbors. They showed Jean what can happen when a community works together and how the power of prayer truly works.

This book is also written to remind the media that positive stories can emerge from experiences if we choose to work together, even in a smaller community, for the good of the whole and the sake of one person. For those reading this story, please know that your prayers will always be remembered in my heart.
