Barney M's NDE

It was a hot summer day, a year after my grandmother and beloved brother had passed away. I worked on farms making money. I was going to go bail hay that day. I was driving a small truck and my good friend was with me.  We were running late and were speeding about 70mph on a gravel road.  When I came up to a crossroad, I broad-sided a station wagon, flipped the truck over the car 6 times.  My good friend was thrown through the windshield. I was thrown with the drivers door 80 feet into a soybean field.  As I landed, I broke my left arm, broke my ribs, punctured my lung, bruised my heart and swallowed my tongue.  I laid there without anybody knowing that I was even there.  The medical records said I was there at least 8 minutes.  If it wasn't for my good friend asking about me they would of never known.  As I lie on the ground, I felt nothing.  There was no pain, it was perfect peace.  I felt myself being pulled and I saw my body laying on the ground. Then I saw the EMTs working on me but I didn't care.  As I went higher to the light I saw all my relatives that had passed - my aunts, uncles, and my grandmother. As I was traveling through the tunnel to the light, I saw my beloved brother and he stopped me.  He said "Its not your time."  The next thing I remember I was laying on the ground in so much pain they had tubes down my mouth. I couldn't talk.  The next thing I remember was waking up in the hospital
