Roselyne L Possible NDE


EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:

My delivery was scheduled, I went into hospital the night before to give birth to my third child, by Caesarian section like the first two, my eldest daughter wasn’t quite four years old, my son was fourteen months, and that day I was going to give birth to my last daughter. I went into the operating room around 11:30 am, I was put to sleep ( then, I saw! I was above the operating table! And my body was floating in a tunnel, at the end was a light that was growing bigger, I could see shadows at the end of this light and my body stopped floating, I was content, I felt like continuing on my way! But a voice told me I had to go back, that I was needed.  When I came to a pain, ripped my body, I felt like I was in a vice and that someone was pushing on my stomach, and at every pressure, I heard music, a tango, and with each rhythm of this tango, pain in my stomach and chest! Then nothing!

When I returned to consciousness, I was in my room, bars around my bed and I was hitting my head on these bars, it was 6:30 pm, my sister was at my bedside, my daughter was born at 4:25 pm and I had gone in at 11:30 in the morning! I didn’t see the anesthesiologist again during my hospital stay, and in those days! I had never heard of this subject! So I didn’t talk about it! I’d also had a tubal ligation which neither I nor my husband had been told about, afterwards I was just told that I wouldn’t have to resist another delivery! I was 29 years old! For 5 years it was silence, I didn’t want to be thought crazy, I kept this secret, but I knew what I’d gone through, was extraordinary, that there was something after death! But after the death of my nephew in a car accident at the age of 21, the day of his burial my sister who was his Mom felt a force that was pushing her towards the casket that was being put into the ground! I started talking about death saying that for us, the living, the pain was immeasurable, but those who were going towards the light felt good, she went to all the bookstores, to see what was written about death, and there I came across the after-life experience. I WASN’T ALONE, OTHERS HAD GONE THROUGH THE SAME THING I HAD. Now, when someone close dies and I’m there, instinctively I look at the ceiling.. one feels the sensations much more, and I take things philosophically, I am very attentive to what surrounds me, I comfort those who need it.

Was the kind of experience difficult to express in words? Uncertain      Yes, for years I thought that if I talked about it I would be thought crazy.

At the time of this experience, was there an associated life threatening event?          No      

At what time during the experience were you at your highest level of consciousness and alertness?    After my baby was taken from me, because I didn’t see her, when I found myself above the operating table.

How did your highest level of consciousness and alertness during the experience compare to your normal every day consciousness and alertness?    Normal consciousness and alertness

           After my baby was taken from me, because I didn’t see her, when I found myself above the operating table.

Did your vision differ in any way from your normal, everyday vision (in any aspect, such as clarity, field of vision, colors, brightness, depth perception degree of solidness/transparency of objects, etc.)?  Yes     I could see the slightest details of the room, and of the people bending over a body which was mine!

Did your hearing differ in any way from your normal, everyday hearing (in any aspect, such as clarity, ability to recognize source of sound, pitch, loudness, etc.)?             Yes     especially that pounding tango music, at every loud note, the pain which still hurts just to think about it.

Did you experience a separation of your consciousness from your body?     Yes

What emotions did you feel during the experience?            Fulfillment, when I was in that tunnel, heading toward the light. Then intense pain when I returned to my physical body.
 

Did you pass into or through a tunnel or enclosure?          Yes     I see my body floating, I see a point of light at the end of the tunnel, the point becomes bigger and bigger.

Did you see a light?           Yes     The closer I get the more intense the light becomes, but it doesn’t hurt the eyes.

Did you meet or see any other beings?           Yes     I see shadows in this light, who look in my direction but they kept their distance.

Did you experience a review of past events in your life?    No      

Did you observe or hear anything regarding people or events during your experience that could be verified later?          No      

Did you see or visit any beautiful or otherwise distinctive locations, levels or dimensions?           No           

Did you have any sense of altered space or time?   No      

Did you have a sense of knowing special knowledge, universal order and/or purpose?     Yes     Of knowing that there’s an elsewhere, and of being privileged, I feel that more now, with the passage of time since this experience, I especially learned wisdom, discernment, listening, tolerance and love!

Did you reach a boundary or limiting physical structure? No      

Did you become aware of future events?       Yes
            since then I was hypnotised, I’ve become more aware of Nature, I inspired two people who were very young at the time, to take care of Nature, in their work, respecting what surrounds us! People find me wise, happy and tell me that it’s a pleasure to be with me, that there’s and atmosphere of fulfillment in my house.

Did you have any psychic, paranormal or other special gifts following the experience you did not have prior to the experience?     Yes     as I said previously, I’ve found myself hypnotising, giving massages, reading the Tarot, stones, but especially not commercially! with what I can feel, if I’m asked, it’s with my heart that I do it, what I was given through this experience is Love, and one doesn’t trade in Love. In writing that for you I get the impression that you’ll think me enlightened, my feet are firmly on the ground. 

Have you shared this experience with others?         Yes  7 years after my experience ! some skeptics of course, and others who’d been through the same thing, but it caused some skeptics to think, considering my behaviour because aggression was no longer appropriate! I speak calmly, and I flee conflict, I have since managed to block out everything that surrounds me, even with people around me, I put myself in a bubble, people can yell, make noise, I hear nothing if I’m not interested, I feel good.    

Did you have any knowledge of near death experience (NDE) prior to your experience?    No      

How did you view the reality of your experience shortly (days to weeks) after it happened:            Experience was definitely real    What I went through I felt in my flesh, on my return I knew that I didn’t dream it.
 

Were there one or several parts of the experience especially meaningful or significant to you?    Of feeling well and of keeping things in perspective since the experience and understanding that what happens can’t be changed, that one must live in the present, in the moment with those we love and telling them that we love them. 

How do you currently view the reality of your experience:            Experience was definitely real            that I’m not the only one to go through it, and that all the situations that I heard of are similar to mine, and (if it was a dream) there would be many of us who have had the same dream. 

Have your relationships changed specifically as a result of your experience?           No      

Have your religious beliefs/practices changed specifically as a result of your experience?            No           

Following the experience, have you had any other events in your life, medications or substances which reproduced any part of the experience?         No      

Is there anything else you would like to add concerning the experience?        I am happy to have had this experience with hindsight, because I think I’ve become more diplomatic, and a better person.
 

Did the questions asked and information you provided so far accurately and comprehensively describe your experience?         Yes     It feels good to write it down, because I have never confided so much on this extraordinary adventure in 30 years. Thank you.
