I experienced CA - was in the hospital sitting up in bed when my face got hot & I was feeling icky. I pushed the button for a nurse & that was all I knew for awhile.
I hovered over my body, saw my self lying on table with white sheets. Saw the doctor & nurses came running when Code Blue was called out. They worked the paddles & doctor starting to intubate when nurse called the words, flat line, she's gone - call the time.
I went threw like a tunnel very fast with a whoosh sound & became in front of the most brillent white light. I knew two things. One, time was very swiftly there & second, communication was by thought form.
A question by thought came to me, would you like to stay or go back? I had to make a split decision. I heard my own voice say out loud, I don't want to die yet for I want to see my two granddaughters grow up.
Where ever I was on the other side it was so calm, floating, peaceful lovey feeling that words can not explain.
The doctor said I came back at that point. I would never be afraid to die for its a wonderful feeling there.
I can close my eyes after eight years & go directly to that brillant white light & experience a warm feeling.
It was a life changing event that no words can explain.
I feel my experience & stay in hospital was like a written script & I just played the part.
There is more to my story the whole ordeal was planned in every way.
I am enjoying my two granddaughters & my great granddaughter, Sarah. That is another story...
