Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Life may actually flash before your eyes on death - new study

A brain monitor of an 87-year-old epilepsy patient recorded his dying brain by chance. There were brainwaves that look identical to high-cognitive demanding tasks like recalling memories or dreaming before and after a fatal heart attack. One of the neurosurgeons of the patient thinks during the last 30 seconds before the patient’s heart stopped supplying blood to the brain after the heart attack, he might have a last recall of memories. Since this was not a planned study but just an accidental recording of the brainwaves right before and after the patient’s death, it surprised the neurosurgeons who analyzed the recording. Do we really have a last moment recall of our life or experience before the brain dies? If so, we wish to have a happy ending.

Enjoy reading the article and learning about this accidental but interesting finding of the last moment brain activity.
