EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:
Basically I remember being in a queue and some people I knew or recognized
and some I didn't. This bits a bit
vague.
The next stage I remember very clearly. I was in a tunnel which seemed to be
moving round - rotating. I was not rotating just walking forward.
As I walked through the tunnel the walls were changing color all the
time. The only way I can describe it
was it reminded me of a kaleidoscope toy a friend of mine had and the colors
moved and were ever changing. The
colors in the tunnel were not so strong.
Remember blues and lemons. As I looked straight ahead I could see a pin
head of white -I thought it was the end of the tunnel. It seemed for ever to get
to the end and then suddenly all I could see was white light and nothing else.
It was bright but didn't hurt my eyes.
I could look into it. Then I heard someone call my name. When I looked I
saw a man standing dressed in unusual clothes - non western.
Like a robe but plain. He had
a small child at his side. He reached out his hand and called my name and
gestured for me to come over but I would not go.
Next I remember a faint stinging sensation on my face and heard a woman
calling my name. I was starting to regain consciousness.
The dental staff were really slapping my face hard to wake me up.
Told my mum what I experienced and I told her the man was Jesus. She told me not
to be so stupid.
Forgot about this incident until about 15 years ago.
I needed my birth certificate and asked my mum if I could have it.
She told it was in a drawer up stairs and just to go and get it.
There were other certificates there.
I came across a birth certificate but the date of birth was wrong.
I thought she couldn't have got my birth date wrong.
Then I looked at the year of birth - it was 10 years before me.
So went downstairs to ask my mum.
She told me it was her first baby that only lived for 2 hours after the birth.
Then my mind went back to the day I was at the dentist - the man I
thought was Jesus and I wondered the child beside him was that maybe my dead
sister. This is why I believe this was a
near death experience.
