Russell was talking to his office, « I’m a celebrity . . . Get me out of here! ”His classmates at camp Friday reported two brain tumors that had left him in need of major surgery and possibly killed him, when he revealed that he had seen a light. . Speaking to Ruthie Henshal, who joined the camp with him three days ago, Russell said he saw a light as he contemplated surrender and died, before realizing he needed to fight..

Russell’s second tumor caused bleeding during his sleep that nearly killed him, and he called the paramedic who told him to stay alive..

“The second was holy ***, I went home, went to bed and didn’t wake up because of the bleeding.

« My assistant found me, called the paramedics, and I knew I was in trouble because the paramedic kept saying, » Stay with us, stay with us. « .

Russell continued: « One of the most emotional things after I got out of the intensive care unit is that this guy came to me and said, ‘It’s good to see you’re fine, Mister Watson, » and I realized it was, « Stay with us, stay with us. ».

Vernon asked Kay Russell if he had experienced « seeing light » like many people who nearly died seeing their vision.

« I was in the MIR scanner and could see this long strip of light, like I was a kid and you were keeping your bedroom door open.

« It was a light strip, and I was thinking, if I go to that door I’m out of here and the pain stops and I’m away, and all I can think about is my kids and slowly as I think about my kids, the MRI rattles again and I thought, I’m going to hit this.
