Rudy Giuliani Reveals He Had ‘Significant Spiritual Experience’ While In Coma

May 14, 2026·3 min read

Rudy Giuliani said he underwent a profound spiritual moment while seriously ill with pneumonia earlier this month, describing a vivid experience that occurred while he was unconscious and fighting for his life.

Speaking Wednesday during his return broadcast of “America’s Mayor Live!” following his hospitalization, the 81-year-old former New York City mayor recounted what he described as a deeply personal encounter involving his late friend and longtime associate, Peter J. Powers.

“I also had a very, very significant spiritual experience at a time in which I was in a state of like … out of it,” Giuliani described.

He went on to explain that in this vision, Powers appeared to him in what he characterized as a meaningful and impactful moment.

“There was a very significant intervention by my Peter, I have my own Peter … Peter J. Powers, my friend of my lifetime,” he said.

According to Giuliani, the exchange left a lasting impression, prompting him to document it shortly after regaining consciousness. He said his son Andrew recorded part of his account while he was still recovering in a hospital bed in Florida.

“Peter said some very significant words, and I made sure, as soon as I woke up, I started telling people and recorded it in part,” he added, noting his son, Andrew, recorded his retelling of the dream by his bedside in Florida.

Giuliani indicated that he intends to share further details of the experience at a later time.

Powers, who had known Giuliani since their youth, played a central role throughout his career, serving as a trusted advisor, campaign manager, and deputy mayor. He passed away in 2016 at the age of 72 following complications from lung cancer.

The health emergency that led to Giuliani’s hospitalization began on May 3, when he was admitted in critical condition with viral pneumonia. The illness was believed to be connected to lingering respiratory issues stemming from exposure during the September 11, 2001 attacks.

Sources close to Giuliani later said he briefly fell into a coma during the ordeal, though his condition steadily improved afterward.

In a separate appearance Wednesday on “The Rudy Giuliani Show” on Lindell TV, Giuliani said he is now feeling significantly better and continuing to recover.

“It is very nice to be back … I’ve been away about a week and a few days. I had pneumonia, I was in the hospital. I’m going to tell you all about it, not all right away,” Giuliani said.

He described his recovery as ongoing but encouraging, noting that he has resumed physical activity.

“I’m in the middle of making a very, very full and complete recovery. Today, I did physical exercise, walked up and down stairs, and walked all around. I feel 100 percent, but I’m probably not,” he added.

Giuliani also spoke about the support he received during his hospitalization, singling out President Trump for staying in close contact throughout the episode.

“Of course, I have to thank the president, of whom I had a very good conversation after I got into the hospital,” Giuliani recalled.

His spokesman, Ted Goodman, said that Trump’s team remained in regular communication, checking frequently on Giuliani’s condition.

“He was just terrific,” the former mayor said of Trump. “He’s just a godsend to this country.”
