Edith C Probable NDE

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

I came into a place where children were playing games, it looked like a public square, a very broad space, where the colors were unusually brilliant to see, and everything seemed very calm, with no anxieties. It was a peacefulness which is very difficult to put into words. I was accompanied by someone, I suppose it would have been a woman, because she had a brown skirt on. Suddenly I saw some children near to me, my attention was drawn to a very pretty little girl. I was very happy and was following her, when suddenly I saw a little boy, and he was sad. He tried to come near me, but the little girl whispered something to him and sent him away from me. I tried to reach him (the little girl was smiling at me), I stretched out my arm and the little boy just turned around, as if asking me for something. The "person" at my side guided me in the other direction. When I woke up, I was in the operating-theater, and I remember I felt full of anguish, started to cry, I wanted to go back to that place, and asked the doctor to let me go there.
