His experiences have enabled him to assist others through their near-death experiences (NDEs). Dr. O'Driscoll first met an unconscious Jeff Olsen in a trauma suite while Olsen passed through a NDE. They've now been friends for over twenty years, frequently discussing the tenuous terrain near the borders of mortality and lessons learned beyond the veil.
