Experience description: 

I have Epilepsy. One day I got weak and fell against my grandfathers dresser. I split my forehead open and had to be rushed to hospital. They finally got my bleeding to stop, but then I started having one seizure after another. They tried using Liquid valium and some other drugs directly into my heart. The result was that the combination of drugs Stopped my Heart and my Lungs stopped working at the same time. It was almost eight minutes before they finally brought me back to life. They said she is dead let her go. My OLD family doctor said NO Let's try again. So, they did and I finally responded.

   During that eight minute time period, I saw everything that took place in the ICU room. I told all the doctors and nurses that I keep telling them I was all right, but no one could hear me. I told them minute by minute exactly what took place in the room. My OLD family doctor said, "I have had many patients die on me, but never had one come back and TELL me what took place while they were clinically dead."

   I saw one of my grandfathers when I came to the end of a DARK TUNNEL. no one in our family had ever taken any pictures of him. But, when my OTHER grandfather came to hospital to see me. He said "Marsha I brought something but don't know why. I stopped him and said is it a picture of my other grandfather. He said YES, how did you know?  The ONLY picture EVER taken was at his funeral when I was very young. I told him EXACTLY what he looked like. He said yes, Marsha that is what he was buried in. How did you know?  After I told him what I saw he was amazed. I saw other people but that is another story.

    Please believe me when I say that I am a Christian and after this experience am not afraid to die. I know have a husband and three grown sons and six grandsons and they all know the story for it has been told over and over.  PRAISE GOD
