On Christmas Day 2017, Joshua Damours went into surgery expecting to wake up a few hours later. Instead, he found himself somewhere he never expected to be-and he didn’t want to come back. In Between Breaths, Damours shares the astonishing account of his near death experience and the life that led him there. As a gay man struggling with clinical depression, anxiety, heartbreak, and the lifelong search for acceptance, he never imagines that a routine surgery would shatter everything he thought he knew about life, death, and the human soul. What he experienced beyond the boundaries of physical existence challenged his deepest assumptions about reality, death, and what ultimately lies beyond the veil. During his near-death experience, Damours encountered three beings of light, received extraordinary downloads of knowledge from them, and witnessed the transition of hundreds of thousands of people who perished in the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001. These profound experiences transformed him in ways that continue to shape his life—a journey that unfolds throughout the pages of this book. As a certified Human Resources Professional, Joshua Damours spent years helping others navigate some of life’s most difficult transitions. Today, he brings that same compassion and insight to his writing, inviting readers into a conversation about mortality, consciousness, and what it truly means to be alive. Through his memoir, Joshua hopes to offer comfort to those who fear death, hope to those facing life’s darkest moments, and reassurance that even amid suffering, there may be a deeper purpose waiting to be discovered. "A profound and deeply moving memoir that lingers in your thoughts long after the final page." -Limelight Publishing
