EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

I remember that the day of the car accident, I felt so sad during the morning. I remember that I did not wanted to do anything (not moving from my room). I was not afraid, I was very very sad, but I did not know why. I remember almost crying for nothing until my husband cam into the room and asked me what was going on. He tried to cheer me up and we decided to go for shopping food for the week. I was doing thing slowly than normal and wanting to cry for nothing. After shopping the food, we went home, but on the car I stared feeling sad and afraid of something. I felt exalted...and I tried to calm down. Suddenly, a black car appeared and .....I just remember the car was spinning and....after I remember a beautiful peace that I can not describe with words. I did not remember anything. I was not aware of what happened. I did not remember anything at all. I just saw a light like the sun...so bright and clear. I saw the threes like if I was lying down looking the sky...but it was not the sun for sure....how could I being looking at the sun without hurting my eyes. I start listening children laugh...like if they were playing and having fun. But that peace, that peace was awesome. Suddenly, I start feeling fear, so much fear and I remember I opened my eyes. I could not see clear but I just saw how the doors of an ambulance were closed and I said "something happened" and I lost consciousness due to the craneoencefalic trauma I had.

After many months after my accident, my husband told me we were in the car all the time as the rescue team could not open the door of my side. I was completely in blood and I was not breathing. He said my eyes were wide open but "crystallized" like a death fish. He thought I was death. After some minutes, I made a big sigh and start breathing but unconscious.
