Grace Bubulka's near death experience happened many years ago in childbirth. She nearly died of sepsis, and the ineffable experience changed her life. It took over a decade for her to feel comfortable telling others, but now she shares her experience with universities, medical schools, and churches via seminars in the United States and around the world. As a professional nurse specialist in Trauma, Grace once did not understand the experience her patients would try to explain. She attributed their other-worldly tales to medication side-effects or lack of oxygen, until she learned the truth... the hard way. Her book, Beyond this Reality: A Personal Account of the Near Death Experience, has provided insight for her fellow professionals and comfort to many.
