Jeffery Olsen and his son Spencer, are Near Death Experience survivors of a car accident that took the lives of Jeffery's first wife, and Spencer's mother, Tamara and Jeffery's son (Spencer's brother), Griffin. To add to the trauma of the event, Jeffery's leg was amputated in the process, he broke his back, endured eighteen surgeries, and five months in an Intensive Care Unit. In this week's episode, Jeffery and Spencer share the details of their lives prior and post accident, their ongoing navigation of grief, loss and acceptance, their journey of hope, enlightenment, and the healing gift that is Jeffery's second wife, Tonya and the children they now have together.
There is a trigger warning for this episode, as Jeffery and Spencer courageously recount the day of the accident in explicit detail, and their comparative experience with it. Compellingly, Jeffery discusses the subsequent Out-of-Body Experience he had in the immediate moments post accident, an experience he describes as profoundly vivid, in which he was able to converse with his deceased wife, as they floated in a ball of light. Her instruction to him in that moment was simple and clear: "You need to go back and raise our son so he is not orphaned".
The event that Jeffery and Spencer endured on that day was tragic. However, it is overpowered by hope and love. Twenty six years later, you will see two humans that are enriched, at peace, and in their own words, "refusing to be victims".
Enjoy,
