At some point in a person's life, they may need to be sedated for a variety of reasons from major surgery to having a tooth pulled. What happened to Sandra is rare, terrifying and you are only a drop of Propofol away from the same experience.From the author - When I visited my mom in the hospital, everyone told me she knows you are here. I believed that. I thought for sure she could sense my energy and my comforting spirit. I didn't realize that she was lucid and processing information in a wide-awake state.While our family sat at her bedside, she visiting the darkest recesses of her mind and confronting her deepest fears. This is the true story of the strongest woman I know.
