Experience description:
I was 5 years old.
I had measles and very very high fever. I was at home because they could not
shift me to a hospital. The doctor was not too sure if I'd make it though the
night.
What I was most
aware and awestruck by was seeing myself in my bed. But it wasn't scary it was
peaceful. I saw my grandma asleep in a chair next to me. saw my parents in the
next room asleep and my other grandma in the 3rd bedroom asleep. The walls of
the house were just not there. I was moving towards a beautiful bright light
just like the moon but sending out long rays of light that I was going
towards...... I kept going higher and higher towards the light saw myself and my
family get smaller and then suddenly my grandma woke up, opened her prayer book
and started praying. Next thing I knew I was getting sucked down towards my
body and landed in with a thump. My parents say I was in a coma for about 3
weeks and couldn't even open my eyes.
