Rudy Giuliani, 81, says he experienced what he describes as a “very significant” or “significant” spiritual experience while he was in a coma related to severe viral pneumonia. Multiple outlets report that Giuliani made the comments during his return to his online show, “America’s Mayor Live,” after being hospitalized earlier in the month. He was said to be on a ventilator or in a coma during the height of his illness, and he has since been recovering. Giuliani told viewers that after his hospitalization for pneumonia, he is working toward a full recovery and said he has recovered fully, according to Fox News. The outlets agree on the core points: Giuliani’s age, that his hospitalization involved pneumonia and a coma/ventilation period, and that he discussed a spiritual experience when he came back to broadcasting. The reports do not include additional independent verification of the spiritual account, focusing instead on his personal description and his return to public appearances from his home in West Palm Beach, Florida.
