After narrowly escaping death, Tina Hines awoke and scribbled a terrifying note for her loved ones.
Last February, Tina and her husband Brian were looking forward to a trek close to their home in Phoenix, Arizona.
Tina had always been healthy, but just as they were about to set out, she passed out.
According to Brian, he knelt down next to his wife, who had gone a dark purple, and began performing CPR on
The mother-of-four was briefly brought back to life, but Brian had to do it again before paramedics could take over.
Tina was resuscitated a total of six times before she awoke at the hospital, and the team kept losing her during the terrifying ambulance ride and during treatment.
Tina and her family told AZfamily.com that she was essentially dead for a total of 27 minutes.
She was intubated and unable to talk while at the hospital, but as soon as Tina woke up, she motioned for a pen so she could scribble her mysterious message, which she claims relates to heaven.
Tina Hines wrote “it’s real” in practically unintelligible lettering, referring to the glimpse of heaven she claimed to have had during the 27 minutes she spent “dead” after suffering a severe cardiac arrest.
In almost illegible print, Tina Hines scrawled ‘it’s real,’ referring to the vision of heaven she said she had during the 27 minutes she was ‘dead’ after going into sudden cardiac arrest
Tina told AZfamily.com, “It was so real, the colors were so vibrant.”
She recalled seeing a person standing in front of dark gates with a bright yellow light burning behind them, which she believes to be Jesus.
Tina merely ‘nodded’ upward when her loved ones inquired about what was genuine while she was still being intubated.
