Cara S NDE

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

I felt the presence of my dead father in the theatre room when I realized that the anesthetic was not working on me. He was in the corner, trying to comfort me in the unbelievable pain that I was in from the surgery that I was going through, since I was feeling everything that the surgeon was doing to me.

He was telling me that it would be over very soon. When the surgeon had finished, and they were taking the tubes out of me and asking me my name, the only thing I said with my last breath was "the anesthetic did not work, I felt everything". I stopped breathing. My father came up closer to me holding my hand. I felt slight movement in my legs, and started kicking to signal something was wrong to the surgeon. I stopped breathing. It felt like several minutes had passed when the surgeon realized something was wrong. I was too weak to kick and stopped. They were loosing me. Surgeon checked to see heart beat, very weak and realized also I had stopped breathing. I heard nurse say they were loosing me. I then felt my father taking me by the hand and my spirit rising from my body as I could see nurses and surgeon working on my body. I saw a tunnel and bright lights, and felt the presence of other dead people going towards the light through the tunnel. Then as I was getting nearer to the light I was stopped, and my grandfather asked if I wanted to continue, but there would be no return to earth. I said no, I had to get back to my sons. Then can't explain at what speed it was I went back into my body, like being electrocuted, and took a breath. I opened my eyes and saw the surgeon collapse next to my crying.
