Experience Description

It began with the death of my mother on 31 December 2006, at 06h30. I have now suffered twice from breathing difficulties, because of Diabetes. My health was never previously bad. Before this, I had excellent health; never even had the flu. These were bad times. All year long, I became ill with bronchitis. I had this for 3 weeks following my mother's funeral. I then got physically better but was really suffering inside. I could not accept her death and, though I got better physically and had never believed much in the paranormal, since she was no longer with me I began to hear things, feel her presence, even her smell. Everyone thought I was hallucinating in the beginning. But there were many occasions, when third parties observed that I was not lying. My friends, family and even my own brothers had physical confirmation and began to believe me. All this took place over several months and I was so distracted that I began to eat my meals while walking in the street. In addition to my grief, it was inevitable that my body began to suffer, and I began to feel ill. It began with fever through half my body, up to my head, with stomach pains and headaches, which were horrible. However, I thought it was just the heat, as it is very hot here and very dehydrating. We call it heatstroke. I began to take saline solution and baths to bring my fever down.

Suddenly my fever would leave me then it would come back again. I was like this for 4 days, my face in the mirror looked back at me, ugly, pale, as if my visage were turning to a skull. I would weep, frightening myself, and at this time, I lost my appetite and felt weak going to work. I went on going until one morning I woke up very yellow, and I could not continue. I asked for help and was taken to the doctor where I was diagnosed with Hepatitis A (contracted by eating in the street, unhygienic food, etc.). Because I had neglected myself for 2 months and had become ill, I was treated with medicines, which brought out all the infection, but I suffered horrible pains, as my liver and kidneys were affected and infected; liver inflamed, kidneys infected. I spent 2 months bedridden, full recovery takes 6 months, with a no-fat diet to avoid damage to liver and kidneys.

It was a strict diet and one can imagine how it affected me. I lost 8 or 10 kilos in 3 days and became very thin. I am telling this so that you may know my story and understand how things were going at this time. I no longer had the will to live. I thought of dying and wished for it. Anything I did caused me pain. I could not eat anything and I felt worse. This is pain that I would not wish on anybody.

If it were not for my sister, who did not leave my side, I would not be here giving my account. She did what she could to help me recover a little, to begin to eat, but by then it was already one week gone and I had lost more weight, and had trouble drinking as well. So it was about 15 days in which I hardly ate at all. My sister also had paranormal experiences. She dreamt of our Mama, who told her she would always be with me, caring for me until I recovered, that she would cure me. Everyone saw that I was getting worse though and hope seemed futile. I was the only one of five brothers and sisters who was affected on a physical and emotional level. The others were affected, but I was the one in the worst state.

For the whole week, I stayed indoors in the house, which used to be our mother's, and where only my brother and I now live. I didn't want him to feel alone, and I could not go in a car anywhere; the pain in my kidneys made me bedridden. In these days, I had a strange feeling in my feet; possibly from the fevers, which came and went in my body. I slept without wanting it, fearful that I would not awaken. So it was that night I remember being on the verge of sleep when I saw that I was being watched through the window. Yellow eyes, I do not know what it was, but I went to sleep immediately. Time disappeared and I saw myself in a very peaceful place, breezy and very warm. I could see some very big trees, not of this world, or at least I have never seen anything like them. I did not look at my body, but I had eyes and I heard music like a celebration. I saw deceased people, neighbors and relatives in a place like a wood. But the strangest and nicest feeling was that, while I was there, and I am sure that I was, I had no pain. All I felt was something marvelous invading my body; an indescribable peace and love which has to be experienced, though I would not wish anything bad for anybody.

I had a feeling of 'where am I?', then, 'I know I'm here and I don't want to go back there. I know I have died and my past life means nothing to me.' It is a feeling, which comes to me and covers me; it is lovely.

I began to see some huts, it was a charming wood, then suddenly I was hovering, and I saw that people were eating. They were all in white with jackets or tunics, I don't recall exactly, and I saw Mama in the distance, chatting, and someone else approaching her. Meanwhile I was being asked by others what I was doing there. I said to them, 'Did you invite me to the party or not?' They said, 'No, you aren't invited.' Then my mother came up and scolded me, saying, 'You are not supposed to be here, it is not your time, and you must go.' I said to her, 'No, I'm happy here,' and, at that, I felt myself tugged from behind. Everything became dark and suddenly all became confused. I don't know if it was a vision but I was still there and began to see a sort of puzzle lighting up little by little. I did not know where I was, as I had been at the party, and then little by little everything became clear. All this took about a minute. I was in shock, not recognizing anything, but then I realized that I was in my room and I asked myself, 'How did I get here?'

Then I saw myself stretched on the bed like a corpse, pale, with mouth open. After a minute or so I realized what was going on, and I could not breathe. Then I felt my breath returning, quite strange, I took in air through my mouth and felt a strong pain in the chest. I got up and stayed in this condition for about an hour. No one can explain this, some say that I died and came back, that I was sent back from beyond, given a second chance, and was reborn. After this happened I did not tell anyone about it for months, for fear that they would make fun of me, but beginning from this time people have seen things in the house, objects moving, sometimes forming signs on the floor. Doors open and close, I dream about Mama and, very strange, when I am most peaceful I see a light coming out of my body, I don't know if this is the aura, or my soul; I am not tightly joined to my body, for having returned as it was not my time. I feel more peaceful and like I am a better person, though still with my faults. I wish nothing bad for anyone; it scares me to think that I can see things, have dreams and premonitions, which I have had, I don't want it to be because of this. I used to have them before, but now they come more frequently. I am not crazy, I know it was real, I was there, but these days there is a lamentable lack of faith and we are few; those privileged to feel, if not to see, God, who fills me with such love, which I know I do not deserve. I thank him for allowing me to be with him and for knowing that the body dies and the soul exists in a different place and dimension; that sooner or later I will return there. I will not go there, I will return there, as I have been there already. I want to tell people to have faith. He still believes that we can change and be better people. God bless them always and fill with light and great peace all those he watches over. Goodbye.

It is painful to me that perhaps God wants, by way of my words, to bring awareness, so that hate disappears from peoples' souls.
