Lisa S Probable NDE

Experience Description

I was taking a bath and started to fall under the water. I remember looking up at the water. Then a gender-less voice asked me, 'Are you ready to go?' I said, 'Yes.' Then I went through a black tunnel. I was so calm and peaceful. It was dark but I felt very secure. It was as if I were with the Holy Ghost. My whole life flashed before my eyes like watching an old movie with reels, except, it was crystal clear in color almost like triple HD. The voice said, 'It isn't your time yet.' My energy/soul/self was hurled back into my body. I started to vomit, which jolted me out of the water instantly. I began to breathe while gasping for air.
