4. A Sore Throat From An Old Injury
Four-year-old Edward Austrian complained often of a sore throat. He told his mother very detailed stories of being a solider during World War I. He explained that he had been shot in the throat and died. His mother took him to the doctor to have the pain in his throat checked. The doctors could not find any reason why his throat was sore, but as a precaution, the doctor decided to remove Edward’s tonsils. After they had been removed, a cyst developed in the back of his throat. Doctors were unsure of how to treat it. As Edward’s parent encouraged him to discuss the former life he was recalling, the pain seemed to dissipate, as did the cyst, something his doctors had no explanation for. Is it possible that the wounds of a dead man were somehow slowly healing in a new body?
