Lisa H NDE

Experience Description

I was fatally injured in a boat wreck at night on the lake. I was knocked out, then fell into the water and drowned. I was unresponsive for twenty-eight minutes while the other boater took us to the shore. An ambulance picked me up and resuscitated me. I was air lifted to University of Missouri Medical center at Columbia. I remained there on life support and in a coma for twenty-eight days. The fact that I am alive today is a miracle.

God, Spiritual and Religion:

Did you have a change in your values and beliefs because of your experience? No Religion comes from man and one is not better than another just translated differently.

Concerning our Earthly lives other than Religion:

During your experience, did you gain special knowledge or information about your purpose? Yes They told me I would return to earth to teach others not to fear life or death. Once this is accomplished, there will be peace on earth. I am a light worker here to bring light into the world. My life's purpose is to help people turn their life tragedies into transformations on a positive note, to live in harmony and balance.

Have your relationships changed specifically because of your experience? Yes I remarried - moved to California and live in a place where people understand what I have to say. Missouri is part of the Christian Bible Belt and I could not stand the energy there.

After the NDE:

Was the experience difficult to express in words? No However, When I wrote my book I did not tell my whole NDE story. I have much more to tell and I am ready to do so now.

Do you have any psychic, non-ordinary or other special gifts after your experience that you did not have before the experience? Yes I always had a sixth sense. Now I can channel messages from beings of light and also the gift of psychic/medium ship. I am more aware of the angelic realm that surrounds us.

Are there one or several parts of your experience that are especially meaningful or significant to you? All I can say is that it was all worth it. I am not afraid of life or death because they are different states of being. Living in spirit is all that matters because when you live through love the same will come back to you. The Law of Attraction does exist.

What do you believe about the reality of your experience now? Experience was definitely real As if I have been given a very special message to give to the world. It was an amazing journey to the other side.

At any time in your life, has anything ever reproduced any part of the experience? No

Is there anything else that you would like to add about your experience? I want people to know that taking their own life is not really an option. When it is our time we will go and stay in the wonderful light of Divine Love.

Are there any other questions that we could ask to help you communicate your experience? Love to connect with other NDErs.
