ACCORDING
TO THE AMBULANCE DRIVER, I WAS DE-FIBRILLATED 3 TIMES BEFORE MY HEART STARTED
BEATING AGAIN. ABOUT 3 MINUTES ELAPSED. DURING THIS TIME I WALKED THROUGH OUR
MAINTENANCE SHOP. AS I WENT INTO THE LAST SHOP, I TURNED AND STARED AT THE REAR
WALL. THE WHOLE WALL AND EVERYTHING AROUND ME WAS A SOFT BRILLIANT LIGHT. I FELT
SOMEONE WAS THERE BUT I NEVER SAW OR HEARD ANYONE SPEAK.
AS SOON AS
I WOKE UP, I FELT THE MOST PEACEFUL THAT I HAD EVER FELT, THEN I THOUGHT OF MY
DEAD FATHER. AT THAT TIME, THE PAIN RETURNED. I DON'T REMEMBER MUCH UNTIL THE
NEXT DAY.
I THINK
ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE EVERY DAY. NOW, I'M NOT AFRAID OF DEATH.
