Profile: Kathy
M.K. (Kathy) McDaniel is the author of the memoir, “MISFIT IN HELL TO HEAVEN EXPAT”. While dying from lung failure in 1999, she was placed on a ventilator and put into a drug-induced coma. A Distressing Near-Death Experience occurred and, although mostly traumatic, she also experienced the overwhelming bliss of Heaven which shifted her religious beliefs to a deep spirituality.
Kathy credits the members of IANDS (International Assn. for Near-Death Studies) for her eventual integration of the Distressing NDE, and the ability to accept the sacred mission that caused her reluctant return to Earth.
She now shares her experience, and its messages, as a guest on various media, and via her memoir, “MISFIT IN HELL TO HEAVEN EXPAT”.
