Woman dies, meets Jesus face to face in heaven, and returns with a message.
We love tales like this! It motivates Kim and me and gives us a taste of what lies ahead for us in the story. Being with Jesus for all eternity… Amen?
On February 12, 2018, Brian Hines dialed 911.
Dispatcher: “Fire Department, what is the address of your emergency?”
Brian: “Tina!” Please, Honey. I believe my wife is suffering a heart attack! “She passed out.”
Dispatch Operator: “Is she breathing?”
Brian replies, “No, she is not!”
Tina was unresponsive.

Brian remembers seeing his wife’s body on the ground: “I have never seen someone with their eyes rolled back and literally starting to turn purple.”
Jeff Logas, their neighbor who had popped by for a quick visit, sought to find a pulse before beginning CPR.
Brian recalls Jeff saying, “Brian, I cannot do this. I am not doing it correctly. So I threw the phone down on the rocks and started pushing on Tina, right in the middle of her chest; I was terrified.”
Jeff describes his current experience: “It felt like a man sacrificing his last breath to try to get his wife back.”
Brian comments, “I believed she had died.”
First responders arrived on the site. Tina’s heart was shocked when paramedics injected two doses of epinephrine. Brian says, “They did it a third time, and I am looking at them, like, ‘Guys, is her heart beating? Can you get her heart beating? “Please God, make her heartbeat.”
Tina, still without a heartbeat, is transported to Deer Valley Medical Center by ambulance as paramedics attempt to resuscitate her.
Tina suffered a gash on her forehead from the fall, a shattered sternum, and multiple cracked ribs from CPR. Tina is transported to the emergency room after showing no signs of life for more than 20 minutes.

“In my mind, I knew she had died. “There was nothing,” recalls the Hines’ neighbor, Jeff Logas.
Family and friends gather in the waiting room to pray and be with Brian. “It was a desperate prayer.” “I asked, ‘God, take everything out of my life if you will give me Tina back,'” Brian explains.
Meanwhile, Tina’s sister, Tammi, and her husband, Dave, race across the desert from Los Angeles to Phoenix. Dave adds, “And she just informed me that she got a sudden sense of peace, that Tina would be fine. As she told me the story, I received a text message on my phone. It came from Brian: “Tina is alive!”
Brian shares, “The doctor stated, ‘We defibrillated her one more time in the ER, and she returned. However, there was approximately 27-28 minutes of limited or no oxygen. We do not know what happened. We are going to put her in a coma so her body can relax while we do all these tests to discover out what happened.”
The doctor said that without oxygen to the brain, most people die within 5-10 minutes. And even if Tina survives, she is likely to suffer brain impairments that will leave her with a significant cognitive disability. Brian, reeling from his wife’s prospective difficulties, entered Tina’s ICU room for the first time.
“I mean, she vented, and the thing is breathing for her. She has all these tubes on her. And your eyes immediately travel to the monitor, where you can see the heart rate, the chart, the beeping, and the figures. It was wild. But I had to be happy that she is still alive,” Brian recalls.
Meanwhile, in the ICU waiting area, relatives and friends, including Dave and Tammi, were praying to God for Tina. Dave adds, “We are praying the entire time.”
Tina’s vital signs returned to normal the next day, and her physicians needed to see if she could breathe on her own. They decided to remove her from the ventilator. Brian whispered into his wife’s ear, “The doctor has to know you can breathe on your own.” And I told them you are superwoman. Can you demonstrate him you can breathe on your own? Her chest moved… When I looked back at the doctor, he said, “That will work.”
Tina could breathe on her own. When she was completely conscious, Dave put a pen in her hand and held a notebook for her. “And she just started creating marks, and I could not identify what they were, and I was nearly shaking. I had a problem. I simply kept the book steady because I did not want it to fall.”
Brian recounts, “We discovered that she wrote I-T-S-R-E-A-L. ‘Is it real?’ And I ask, “What is the pain?” ‘The hospital?’ She is gently nodding your head. Close your eyes. She has thoroughly expressed herself. She is moving all of this. No, and then my kid asks, “Heaven?” And she goes; she nods yes.”
