See how the stories differ…probably due too you being awake at the time you experienced this, and others already under anesthesia, or like me just slipping into the coma while asleep. But literally seeing yourself from above must be some experience.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I read Worms post. In my case, about one hour after my bowels ripped, I went into shock, and lost conciensness. Also I think that my heart stoped only a few seconds, so I don't remember anything.
The doctors and nurses really earned their pay, with me. I spend 54 days in the hospital. 3 days after my emergency surgery, they had to operate again, I started bleeding, because the stiches didn't hold, so they installed ''bridges'', in my abdomen. A week later I had to go back to intensive care, because of a bacteria that had infected me, when my bowels had ripped.
I came to the E.R. horizontally, almost dead, and in excuciating pain. And I left, standing on my own two feet, painless, and smiling, and thanking the all the doctors, and nurses, for what they had done for me. I also told them that I had an even greater respect for what they do. Imagine going home after your shift, knowing that one of your patients is now in the intesive care unit, and might not make it.
Alright, on a more positive note, sort of. I still haven't heard from the Grado rep regarding my RA1. I'm giving her till Friday, and after that, I'm going to order one online. I'm open to suggestions, as to where I should order from, or where I shouldn't order from. I wouldn't mind buying a used battery powered RA1, as long as it's in mint condition. So just let me know.
