I looked at Adam\u2019s monitor. His heart rate was 180, a normal heart rate for an infant. At that point, his vital signs were nominal. I said I\u2019d go home when Adam\u2019s heart rate reached 111. Greg and I sat in the dark, listening to the beep-beep of Adam\u2019s monitor. A few minutes later, Greg said, \u201cLook at the monitor.\u201d Adam\u2019s heart rate was 111.<\/p>\n<p>My youngest sister, Rhonda, and I clipped some locks of Adam\u2019s dark brown hair as a keepsake. I was sitting at the head of his bed examining our handiwork when I heard Adam say jokingly, \u201cMom, what the fuck did you do to my hair?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In that pivotal moment, if I\u2019d talked myself out of believing what I\u2019d just experienced, I would have grieved Adam\u2019s death in an entirely different way. Trusting the communication from Adam was real not only allowed me to accept the loss of Adam\u2019s physical presence, it allowed me to create an entirely new relationship with the part of Adam that is eternal.<\/p>\n<p>Adam\u2019s lungs, kidneys, pancreas, and liver saved the lives of two individuals and significantly improved the lives of three others. Adam\u2019s liver went to a young mother from Indiana, where I was born. Adam\u2019s pancreas went to a woman with diabetes who\u2019ll never have to suffer another amputation. Adam\u2019s kidneys went to a woman from somewhere in California and to a man in Oakland who no longer plan their life around the need for dialysis. Adam\u2019s lungs went to a seventy-two-year-old man from Arizona.<\/p>\n<p>From January 2011 to February 2023, Adam led me on a twelve-year-long wild goose chase where I collected seemingly random puzzle pieces that when presented altogether, finally make sense. From a past life as a knowledge keeper in Atlantis to serving as an intergalactic guardian, Adam\u2019s mind-blowing after-death adventures will change everything you thought you knew about life and death and the world as we know it.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t let your skin suit fool you into thinking you\u2019re anything less than a co-creator with God. We don\u2019t have to die to evolve to a higher level of consciousness. When it comes to consciousness-raising, Adam and I are giving away the cheats. <strong><em>Adam\u2019s Gift<\/em><\/strong> is more than a memoir, it\u2019s a multidimensional multimedia experience.<\/p>\n<p>Brace yourself, you\u2019re in for an e-ticket ride.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/authorwebservices-xl.net\/ArchwayPublishing\/855299\/excerpt\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"button\" rel=\"noopener\">Read an excerpt<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archwaypublishing.com\/en\/bookstore\/bookdetails\/855299-adams-gift\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"button\" rel=\"noopener\">Order a copy now<\/a>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first night in the hospital, while Adam was on life support, around midnight, a nurse advised me to go home and get some rest.
