They say when you die "your whole life flashes before you." I found out the hard way...that's not quite right. Larry Skahill, author, "Dead Man Rising" A birthday celebration spearfishing with his teenage son turns into a life and death struggle as Larry Skahill was "essentially cut in half" (Kenneth Waxman, M.D., Board of Governors, American College of Surgeons) by a boat propeller. While his blood-drained, shredded body was heroically retrieved by his son, and again while paramedics and doctors tended his "level one trauma," Larry journeyed beyond death multiple times. "Dead Man Rising" presents an exciting, riveting preview into life after death. Journey with Larry past death and back to the extreme challenges to survive. Experience the struggle to rebuild a shattered life with no personal resources beyond an epic faith in God's purposes. Through this miraculous, inspirational story of hope that defies common sense and medical knowledge you will be challenged to discover that all things happen for a reason.
