A Stanford NICU nurse checking in a new resident physician realized his name was familiar — he was the 2-pound, 29-week preemie she had been primary nurse for 28 years earlier, now a doctor caring for babies on the very unit that saved him.

A wooden statue of the Virgin Mary at the Institute of the Handmaids of the Eucharist in Akita, Japan wept on 101 documented occasions between 1973 and 1981, with tears and blood analyzed as human biological fluids; Bishop Ito approved veneration in 1984.

In 1991, musician Pam Reynolds accurately described surgical instruments and procedures during a hypothermic cardiac standstill in which she was clinically brain-dead, making her case the most scrutinized veridical near-death experience in the medical literature.
