Experience Description

Last year (2022) March the 3rd, my wife was admitted to ICU. She suffered from Lupus with rare genetic condition known as TSC (Tuberous sclerosis complex) and was in and out hospital for the past 2 months for weekly blood transfusion. This is because her blood platelets had been low and unable to rise up to normal level even after 2 months of treatment. On 3rd of March 2022, she got a high fever and was shivering. She was sent to hospital immediately and on the next day, she was breathing with difficulty. When I went to hospital, I saw the doctor put her in ventilation. It pained my heart to see her in such pain. In the next few days, her fever went up to 40 Degree Celsius. I was beside her all day long.

One evening that week, I was seated on a chair beside her bed resting with my eyes closed. The nurse was attending to my wife, cleaning her body, checking etc. While I was resting on the chair with my head down, eyes closed, I suddenly saw a white light glowing (eyes closed). It started to get brighter and brighter, very intense. It was so bright to a point I felt somewhat unusual. So, I thought: Did the nurse switched on all the lights? Then the white light continued to glow until I felt myself immersed in it. It was not painful but very bright and immense white light. I quickly opened my eyes to check. To my surprise, the room was actually very dim. Only a few lights switched on since it was almost bedtime. I was thinking, something is going on here.

Then about 2 days later, I had the same experience. At that point, I knew I could be seeing what my wife saw on the other side. I was thinking that the white light must be Masters, Angels or Supreme Light from the other side. On the other hand, I intuitively also knew my wife's timing on this physical plane is up. There were confused feelings. I was hoping for her to wake up. I was hoping that she was just having a NDE and wake up after that. Also, I had sleep paralysis while my wife in ICU too. I guess this sleep paralysis heighten my psychic awareness.

On 11th of March afternoon, my wife passed. I was totally heart broken. She had many dreams and signs for me even till now. I know she is beside me every day. After the white light experience, my psychic abilities were enhanced. I can sense people's health conditions. After some googling, I realized I was having a Shared Near Death Experience with my wife. We are still very connected till now and I often can sense her help and support from the other side. Thank you.
