What near-death and shared-death experiences tell us about living

What happens when we die? Or… when we almost die? Hear from a neurosurgeon who had a near-death experience about his journey into the afterlife. And meet a woman who had a shared-death experience, on what it was like feeling her mother's struggle as she was dying thousands of miles away.
