Dr. Jeffrey Long, an oncologist practicing in Kentucky, has spent years treating terminally ill patients. After hearing hundreds of stories from patients who had near-death experiences, he became deeply interested in the subject, and he soon became the founder of the Near Death Experience Research Foundation.
In a conversation with Business Insider, Long talked about how one fine day, for his research, he was skimming through books, and then found a book that talked about NDE and the afterlife. And eventually, after talking to hundreds and thousands of people, he realised that these experiences are too consistent, too detailed, and too emotionally powerful to ignore.
