Gina R's NDE

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

            It was 103 degrees outside and I was lucky to be wearing jeans this 25th day of June, 2003. I was leaving a friend's apartment and planned to cut across an eight lane rd. It had dividers so I wasn't that worried. Apparently my timing was off and so was the driver that hit me. All I remember is that I had gotten to the middle divider and stepped halfway up before I felt a force pull me into a direction leaving me in the dark momentarily. My body was struck by a 45mph car and I could sense the projection occurring before it happened. I could protect myself throughout the accident while learning I could see myself being pulled to a safe place. I don't know where I went just before I got hit. That is why I feel an angel of some sort was also involved. While laying on the hot burning pavement some people tried to help me and all I could see was how my life flashed in front of me an image of me not walking and of dying in the hospital. While in the hospital I felt I was in a deep sleep from the exhaustion and impact of the accident but really the Morphine was working too. I developed pneumonia in one lung and was getting worse.  I was in an unconscious state and then in and out of consciousness. I was without food too. I managed to connect my broken cell phone and call out for help. I thought that I'd heal faster at home and did. The doctor said I might not walk for at least 3 years and I was walking by 1 year.

Was the kind of experience difficult to express in words? Yes     I was on psychotropic medication. It was as if my body knew I was about to be struck by a vehicle while crossing the street.  I blacked out just before it happened and didn't feel a thing at first.  She was going 45mph and It didn't even phase me. My first reaction was to get up as if I had just fallen down.
