Carol L NDE

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

I had been in a lot of pain after almost 4 hours of surgery. After being given pain medication I became unconscious. I was told my blood pressure dropped to 58/38 and I was having difficulty breathing. Medical equipment needed to be rushed to me from another part of the hospital. When I came back to earth, a nurse who was watching me told me I had a very "close call". At first I thought HUH? Then I remembered who I was "sort of" and remembered the room and that I had surgery.  

When I had left the planet, I was an entity, sitting on the bottom of a thick black line (as if sitting on the floor in a hallway leaning against the wall) which had beautiful bright white light running the length of either side. I did not have a body and had no awareness of being "Carol" or having a husband and children, a home and a job. I was waiting and was aware of that. I was patient and not bored at all. Not like me. I get antsy and bored, especially without visual stimuli. I was are of my essence. That I ember as being very much me. I was just kind of hanging out waiting for a decision. I had no worries or cares and I was so FREE and RELAXED and CONTENT. I was kind of going la, dee da, dee, da. Just like I do when I daydream. I have always been a daydreamer and I am sure I have had out of body experiences also. (Some OBE were pleasant and some were like escape.) After hovering around in that nice, black hallway surrounded by light for some time I was suddenly back and VERY SURPRISED!!!!!!!! 

Before I had my surgery, about couple of weeks before, as I walked into our local bookstore, I "knew" my doctor who would be at that back of the store. Sure enough, she was and saw me and smiled. I knew everything would ultimately be fine and that she would do an excellent job, yet I had "known" there would be a problem with breathing and something cardiovascular.  

I was relieved to be back to take care of my daughter who was 11 at the time, yet also unhappy to be back. My husband seemed foreign to me and there is a veil between me and the rest of the world which took getting used to. I almost got divorced. I really feel that Carol has gone and I'm stuck as her replacement. Sometimes I get mad and wish I hadn't come here or back or whatever.  

I have had a lot of psychic experiences. I see a lot of things before they happen. I have dreams in which I am other people and that dream appears in the newspaper a day later. I see auras and orbs. My daughter is very psychic. I feel I have a mission. I'm not exactly sure what it is. I do tell a lot of people that we go to the other side. This is all very difficult to explain. And it is difficult to understand why people don't "get it" or see the things I see. I gravitate to certain people more than others. It is interesting. 

Thank you and God Bless you and yours, 

                                      Carol

How do you currently view the reality of your experience:            Experience was definitely real    I was worn out and was sent back with some kind of infused knowledge I was given before leaving to help make me stronger and complete my mission with some modifications regarding its direction. o do a lot of things intuitively based on this. I try to help others when I can. The question is "How far do I stick my neck out." Some people are so... mean or just don't get things I think they should know. Or are they refusing to acknowledge.
