Special Episode || Critical Incidents || Within the Portal
Heathers husband Kyle (me) has taken over the feed for the week!! Heather was given Monday off, so now you get an episode of Critical Incidents.
One second Krishnanand was riding his bike. The next, he was dead in the street.
This week on Critical Incidents, hear how Krishnanand survived getting hit full-force by an SUV — and what happened during nine days in a coma that would change everything.
He didn’t just come back to life — he woke up in a completely different reality, one he now calls The Portal.
💥 If you’ve ever wondered what happens when everything you know is wiped away and you have to rebuild from zero, this is the episode you can’t miss.
