How many of us have had a near death experience? A terrible car accident or illness that could have taken your life? Just wondering what the circumstances were, what happened? How do you attribute your survival in that situation?

I had a client that died giving birth. She was being pulled along a tunnel and doors were closing behind her the further she got. She said she could hear beautiful music and a white light began to envelop her. She was filled with peace and suddenly she heard a voice tell her it was too soon and she started being pulled back in the other direction again.In the distance she started to hear the doctor yelling her name and telling her the baby needed her. Just a few months ago Deloris did pass away at 82 but before she died she told me she was starting to see relatives in her dreams that had long since passed and she knew she didn't have long. She was scheduled for a small surgery and I had told her to be positive, that everything was going to be fine. She had three dogs and she had mentioned the dogs would not leave her side and that she knew the dog sensed her end as well.

First one...I was in a fire when I was 17 and a black labrador retriever woke me and I stood in the front room screaming for my Dad and Stepmother...long story short...just made it out with our lives, lost everything...so what, we were alive and unharmed. The strange thing about this though is that I had a recurring dream upon growing up that I was in a burning room and couldn't get out and all I could see was a bucket of water outside the burning door that I couldn't reach! This dream was almost e
xactly the same as what actually did happen in real life. Strange, huh?
Second one...helped a "gang banger" who was shot outside my front window here in lovely Chicago (I'm of course being facetious).. unfortunately he died as I was trying to help him not bleed out.
Third one...I have myself been taken by ambulance after overdosing with the help of a fentanyl patch! This happened twice. I was lucky that my boyfriend was there to help me and call an ambulance...I sure didn't hear any angels or anything.
Third and last!...While living and working in SE Florida, I came home from work and found my (at the time) live in boyfriend of 2 years dead after he took a gun in his mouth...not pretty..I was a mess emotionally for a time, but recovered from that one! I could go on but I'm hungry and going to get some lunch! (:

Wow, have you ever noticed that the people who have been through many difficulties in life, seem to be the ones with a good understanding of what life is about.
Then, years later, by chance I found a book written by a doctor whose patients had described to him similar experiences when their bodies had physically died, including being able to describe things outside the immediate area for which there was no explanation for them being able to do that.
Scientist will say it is just the brain reacting to a lack of oxygen...but, they don't know nearly as much as they think they do. And today, if someone were to describe a similar experience...I'd tend to believe them.

I just think some people are very closed minded, or they think science has the answers to everything. The more open minded you are the more you should consider the unexplainable.
I almost died from an infection in my intestines, I thought it was kidney stones again and decided not to go to the hospital until the last moment. The doctor said,"If I would have stayed home one more day, I would have most likely have died." I was very, very, sick and though that I was going to die. I prayed to God if it's my time, I'm ready to go. He answered me later, I don't think it was the morphine, but when I looked out the hospital window I saw a cross in the clouds.
I was hoping to get the heck out of this rotten world sooner, but I also prayed that,"If it wasn't my time and He still had a reason for me to be here, I would stay." So looks like I'm stuck here a little longer. Lol, I don't mind living, it's just I have a lot of pain daily and it's difficult to go through.

Anyway, one minute I was there and the next, gone! I could see a silver cord from me to my body which was lying there. I seemed to be in the universe and somebody was talking to me and telling me about it. I could not see who was speaking to me. I felt like one of those angels with huge wings as I stood listening. All the while, I felt waves of intense love emanating from me to the universe and all around. I had no thoughts at all, just a knowing. I did not go through a tunnel of any kind. Next morning, I woke up with the same love emanating from me and I felt much better. Up until this time, I had only the drip in my arm, no medicine. This love coming from me, lasted for one whole year. It was the greatest and most wonderful experience in my life.

Woke up in an overflowing bathtub I was put in by two friends to revive me from an act of stupidity. I heard a voice say "asshole, I'm giving you another chance" I opened my eyes, realized my dilemma, there was no one else in the house, both of my so called friends left thinking I was going to die. I truly believe God spoke to me that day.

Huh, pretty amazing!!! Most people who are given a second chance do some pretty amazing things with their lives. I have seen these people telling their stories of how they became changed by such an experience.
