Eve H NDE

Experience Description

I was in a car accident in 2001. I was the passenger in the car. I remember nothing of the accident but it being black, and for a second I thought, ‘Why does my leg hurt?’ An older man happened to see the car in the nine foot embankment. He stopped. He called the cops. After they were there for a while, they wanted to pronounce me dead. He refused to let them. So they worked for hours to get me out. At the time, what my mind, body, and spirit went through was hell. I started out knowing that I couldn't wake up, and then I was shown all the good things and the bad things that have happened in my life. I started to believe that this was it. I'm going to die.

At one point, my mother’s friends from church came to see me. The one man worked at the hospital. I woke up terrified because I was in the morgue, or at least it’s what I saw one minute then I awoke in my room. I described it to my nurse and everyone else in the room, my nurse was so afraid of me because I described it perfectly. That was just one of the many.

I have a daughter who was just about two at the time. I saw her in a field with me, and a little child walking with us. It was strange I only had one child. Later after I got well, they said that I would never be able to have children, or get pregnant. They said it was impossible. I know having that second child walking beside me was my miracle, that I was blessed to see. I know this might sound strange, but this is all true.

A couple years later, I had this horrible feeling that a child was going to die. I told my husband, and he thought I was nuts. It was there inside me for a week, I felt so sick over it. That next week we get a phone call, his little ten year old cousin dies on a four wheeler. This was another awakening for me. It’s like I've always had this thing inside of me, but it took major self-discovery, and discipline to find it. Anyway, this all happens in my life a lot now. I read people, I get signs in my dreams, it’s different. But it happened to me. Honest truth. Thanks for listening.
