James T's NDE

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

            I was in the hospital with my mother....I was suffering from asthma attack and rushed to emergency. As I lay on the bed ,my breathing was becoming more difficult. As I observe my mother talking to the doctor, I became very sleepy. About 15 seconds before I, what I thought was falling asleep, I suddenly did not have difficulty breathing....The suffering ceased. I then found myself walking through what look like a long tunnel and at the end of this tunnel was a large white ,bright sun glowing. The funny thing about this light is that it did not hurt my eyes or cause any sensitivity to my eyes. I did not feel a sense of fear or extreme happiness...there was no emotion. As I walk toward the light, I remember calling for my mother..." Mom"...I then stopped and a voice behind me said "Walk toward the light". I did not recognize the voice ,but it was calm. I started to walk again and just as I thought in my mind to turn around to see who this voice was, the voice said "Don't turn around...walk toward the light. Everything will be alright". I continued to walk toward the light.  I asked the voice where was my mother? The voice said "Everything will be alright...Walk to the light. I then woke up with the doctors performing chest compressions on me.  Upon awakening I experience a jerking body motion. My mother was crying and the doctor said "He's back"...The doctor said to me "son,we almost lost you". I was not having the difficulty breathing, but the doctor gave me a shot. My mother through tears began to hug me and I ask her where was she, she said 'I was here"...This what I remember of that EXPERIENCE.
