Matt E Probable NDE

EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

I woke at 2:10 am to find myself looking at the alarm clock drifting around the room and feeling light and cool (airy) going out to kitchen then back to bedroom  to find myself looking for the first and only time in my life at myself from somewhere else then drifted outside thru the wall to see my dog who was whining and cowering with one paw over his head looking up at me ..as if he could see me (also I was wondering why I could see so clearly at such an early hour  I could hear all  the activities of the surrounding area. As I drifted out to the street I looked at my neighbors porch and laundry line and the home next door w the Chevy parked in the drive figuring randy must of been off from work.. often he worked nights I started to drift down the road but the house at the end was not visible just a lighter area of fog like something out of twilight zone as I got nearer I came to the realization I did not want to go the field seemed stronger as I got closer I fought to change direction and finally tension that ended with a feeling of falling backwards into a hole...waking  to a sensation of my whole body excruciatingly tingling all at once from scalp, eyelids, ear lobes to the ends of my toes, gasping for breath. I scared my wife who jumped back as I awoke...she was kneeling on top of me pounding on my chest to wake me ..when she sprang back my arms retracted as if I had rigor mortise and she could not straighten them the clock showed 3:20..it was another 20 min before I could sit on the edge of the bed and take 1 sip of water I was stiff for days after and now experience other events that seem more than coincidental
