CJ L's NDE

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

I remember most everything that happened when I walked into the ER. The people started rushing around, the charge nurse kept talking with me, I told her that I was tired and just wanted to close my eyes for a moment. She said not to do that or they would have to put tubes and such In places I wouldn't like, we all laughed nervously. I remember asking them to save my Rockies shirt! They did! A tech was going to insert a catheter tube.  I remember closing my eyes and letting out a breath.

Then I found myself  very alert thinking it doesn't sting, I felt very much at peace, it was dark and I could feel I was moving to my right, kinda like floating fast, I thought at first to yell echo, then thought it would be inappropriate. My next thought was, this is it! I Prayed the Lord's Prayer, and I don't remember the other Prayer, I recall thinking.. Now I get to sing!! At that moment I had a rush like when you fall in a dream. I was upset about being taken away from there! I sat up and looked around saying do you have heating pads under me it's hot take them out! It was the electricity from being shocked back. I know now that I (coded) on the table for about 30 seconds.

I was also told , I did not just close my eyes, I grabbed the nurses arm and gave her a look they call The death stare! I let out a gasp and fell back on the table. I do recall at some time I could feel my left arm and right leg hanging off the table but I couldn't lift them. like I was not connected to them. I don't recall when that happened. Every thing is different now! I'm glad to know I'm not alone in my experience.
