Travis Shreeve, an accountant, gained weight during the pandemic because of his sedentary lifestyle. Additionally, after contracting COVID, his health rapidly deteriorated, prompting him to go to A&E.
As he was descending the stairs at home to head to the hospital, he realised he was struggling to breathe. He asked his wife to call an ambulance and, in the meantime, lost consciousness. He admits he remembered fragments of the journey to the hospital, but shortly afterwards, he fell into a coma.
He admitted, however, that he was "more aware than [he] would ever want to be." He felt as though the medical staff at the hospital were indifferent to him.
I was seeing the nurses come in, I was very aware of them, they were coming in, and they wouldn't talk to me, they were just ignoring me and I felt that something was dangerously wrong - he recalled.
In an interview on the YouTube channel "Prioritize Your Life," he confessed that those one and a half weeks felt like three months.
It was the most terrifying thing of my life times 10, I was fighting to breathe. I fought, and I fought and, I fought to breathe and there was a point where I felt such exhaustion that I felt like this is my last breath - he reported.
The body had no strength to fight. Travis found himself "elsewhere"
As his body was on the verge of giving up, Travis felt he was "elsewhere." He described the place as "beautiful, white, clean." Everything was immaculate, allowing him to forget completely about his crisis.
He also added that he sensed the presence of another person, a woman. He knew it was someone he knew and loved, who reassured him that everything would be alright.
She had spoken to me almost through downloaded information to say that she somehow intervened on my behalf, I don’t know whether she impressed something upon a doctor's mind or plead with God on my behalf, I don’t know what that was, but I came to understand she did in fact intervene on my behalf, I just knew it - he recounted in the interview.
Shortly afterwards, he realised he was back in the hospital, but he was already certain that the woman whose presence he felt had "found a way out" of him.
One last time I was shown an image, it’s like I wasn't allowed to fully remember the image, but there was my family and there were a couple other individuals, and she spoke to me one more time, this was my only moment of peace in the hospital, and she said, ‘Everything is going to be okay, we will be whole again’, and I felt something special about that - added Travis.
