Experience Description

On August 26, 2024, I experienced what I now understand as both a medical emergency and a profound spiritual awakening. This event forever changed how I see life, death, and healing.

I have always been spiritually sensitive. For as long as I can remember, I have noticed signs, received messages, and felt things others did not. But nearly one year ago, everything shifted in a way I never could have imagined.

That morning, I was at work attending a training session when something suddenly felt very wrong. I could not comprehend what was being said. The words sounded distant and muffled, as if I were underwater. Confusion washed over me. My face became numb around my mouth and cheek, and my breathing felt tight.

When the training ended, I tried to walk back to my office. Climbing the stairs felt impossible. My legs were heavy, numb, and unresponsive. I had to grip the railing with both hands and move sideways just to make it up. I felt disoriented, almost intoxicated, and deep inside I knew something serious was happening.

When I reached my desk, I checked my blood pressure. It was dangerously high. I remember thinking, "I know these signs." I truly believed I was having a stroke.

Around noon, my husband called to ask if I wanted lunch. When I answered, I could barely speak. I told him something was wrong. He rushed to my job, helped me to our car, reclined the seat, and began driving me to the hospital. Knowing my medical history, I took my blood pressure medication.

As we drove, my body grew heavier and more numb. My chest felt crushed, as if an elephant were sitting on it. My breathing became shallow, and my head felt swollen and full of pressure. I held my chest with both hands. My husband tried to talk to me, asking how I felt. I told him my symptoms and asked him to tell the hospital what medication I had taken.

I lay quietly with my eyes closed, my hands resting over my chest, trying to send energy to my heart. I believed I was having a heart attack. I silently prayed, conserving what little energy I felt I had left.

About seven minutes into the drive, I uncontrollably lifted out of my body. I could feel it happening, like my energy was draining and I could no longer stay anchored.

At first, my mind tried to analyze what I was experiencing. Then I heard my husband's voice. He was calling my name loudly, over and over. I saw him reach over and shake me, panic on his face. I could hear his thoughts. I could feel his fear. Yet I lay motionless, unable to respond.

That realization sent me into a panic. Why am I watching myself lying there? Moments later, my consciousness slipped into darkness. It was silent, still, and endless.

Fear rushed in.

I thought, "I am dying."

I felt overwhelming sadness and despair, as though my life had been cut short unfairly. Waves of emotion flooded me, especially thoughts of my granddaughters and how badly I wanted to see them grow up. I began saying "No" over and over. At first, I was negotiating with myself: You cannot die. You still have so much to do. Your family needs you.

Then I called out to the Creator with everything I had.

"Help me. God, help me."

That was when the roof of the vehicle disappeared.

Three enormous, glowing female beings appeared above me. They were radiant, loving, and powerful. Their arms were outstretched toward me, as if anchoring me, healing me, or guiding me back into my body. They did not speak, but their presence was unmistakable. I felt concern and sadness from them, an urgency to help, along with overwhelming love.

Behind and above them was an even greater presence, vast, ancient, and loving beyond words. From this Great Spirit, I received a clear message, not spoken aloud but instantly known: "Just ask."

I remember thinking, "How do I ask? I lifted out of my body uncontrollably."

The response came again, simply: "Just ask."

So I asked.

And in that moment, I made a promise. I promised that if I were allowed to live, I would help people heal. I promised to serve others, ease suffering, and use whatever gifts or awareness I was given for healing and compassion.

The three beings moved closer, their hands still extended. I felt held, protected, and guided. I knew then that my life was being returned to me with purpose.

I then heard familiar voices. My nephew and my brother, both of whom had passed, were beside me saying, "Hang on. You are almost there." I became aware of other loved ones watching from a distance. I could not see them clearly, only shadows through a mist, but I knew it was them. They were gathered together near what felt like the opening of a cave or threshold.

I felt a pull toward them, but I knew I was not meant to go there. I avoided focusing on them, knowing that if I did, I would move toward them. At the same time, I noticed the streets lined with spirits, watching us pass.

I could see everything unfolding, my husband driving, crying, panicked, believing I had died. I felt his love and desperation. When he slowed near a police vehicle to stop for help, I screamed internally, "Do not stop, keep going!" Somehow, he did.

Everything was happening at once: the angels, the Great Spirit, my nephew and brother, my relatives in the distance, the spirits lining the street, and my husband desperately trying to wake me.

As we pulled into the hospital, I felt myself drop back into my body. The weight of being human again was overwhelming. My husband ran inside and returned with nurses. I could barely murmur, "Get help."

The hospital diagnosed brain swelling and a trace brain bleed. I was hospitalized for about a week and underwent extensive testing. I was anxious to go home but frightened, having never experienced anything like this before.

Recovery was difficult. I could barely walk. My voice was weak. But every night for a week, loved ones who had passed visited me. They laid healing energy over my body and showed me how healing works.

I had gifts before, but after this experience, it was as if the veil was gone. Messages came constantly. I could feel others' pain deeply. I saw Spirit daily. Above all, I felt overwhelming compassion for people.

I was taught this:

All people have to do is ask, and believe.

Not believing is what blocks healing.

To heal the body, you must release resentment and forgive all wrongs.

Holding on weakens the body.

Let it go. Let it go.

What I want you to know is this: we are never alone. Our loved ones who have crossed over remain close. They guide us, protect us, and come when we need them most. I felt them with me when I stood between this world and the next.

Those three angels were not random. They had been with me all along. I simply could not see them until I needed them most.

And the Creator, the energy of all life, love, and creation, comes when we call. When I cried out for help, I was heard.

And you will be too.

Have your relationships changed specifically because of your experience? Uncertain
I keep more to myself.

After the NDE:

Was the experience difficult to express in words? Yes
I couldn't look the three angels or the great spirit in the face. It was a knowing. I can't describe the color of the angels' clothing, yet when I close my eyes I can see it. I also can't describe the color of the foggy mist where my relatives were. I saw the colors, but if I try to describe them, I feel like I instantly have memory loss.

How accurately do you remember the experience in comparison to other life events that occurred around the time of the experience? I do not know how my remembrance of the experience compares to my remembrance of other life events that occurred around the time of the experience
I remember my experience as if it happened yesterday. When I focus on the experience, I remember things that I hadn't given much thought, and I forget what's not to remember, like the fear and stress of the situation.

Do you have any psychic, non-ordinary or other special gifts after your experience that you did not have before the experience? Yes
My dreams are more vivid. I see spirits more clearly; in the past I saw shadows, but now I see them as clearly as I see the living.

Are there one or several parts of your experience that are especially meaningful or significant to you? The way the angels tried to get me back into my body, and the way they sent energy to my body.

Have you ever shared this experience with others? Yes
Around 6 months later, I shared at a Psychic fair. People in the audience cried and laughed with me.

Did you have any knowledge of near death experience (NDE) prior to your experience? Yes
No, I just believed in Near Death. I don't feel it affected my experience.

What did you believe about the reality of your experience shortly (days to weeks) after it happened? Experience was definitely real
At first, I kept analyzing my experience, I wasn't sure if it was my imagination. When I told my husband, I saw a police car on the side of the road and I heard his thoughts wanting to stop to ask for help, he confirmed it was true. There was no way for me to see the police car, my seat was reclined all the way back and my eyes were closed the entire time.

What do you believe about the reality of your experience now? Experience was definitely real
I view the reality of my experience very real, its as real as me talking with living people as it is to talk with the dead. I have a hard time explaining my emotions.

At any time in your life, has anything ever reproduced any part of the experience? Uncertain
My husbands statement that my body was cold and clammy, I wouldn't respond, he shook me a couple of times and called out my name, he was sure I had passed on. My husband thought about just driving me home instead so that my kids could see me, but my work was 3 hours away from my home.

Did the questions asked and information that you provided accurately and comprehensively describe your experience? Yes
I feel I didn't explain enough. I remember my experience, I feel I remember what I'm supposed to, and at times, I remember parts of my experience I forgot about.

Anything else to add? I believe the great chosen spirits can help us when we ask. I believe we all have a gift, we just have to accept it, be open to it.
