Nicole M Probable NDE

Experience Description

I had been suffering from painful rheumatoid arthritis for many years and had to inject myself with Humira in order to live comfortably.

Three months before my NDE, I knew something was going to happen (death). On August 30, 2010, as I was about to make an injection, my two dogs laid down upon me as if to make a barricade. They had never behaved that way before. I was overwhelmed with fear because I felt the time had come. I injected myself despite the certainty that I was going to die.

Suddenly, I felt myself depart and in a dark tunnel, lit with bluish hues. At the end of it, I could see a very attractive light. I felt no more pain, had no physical body and felt no mental anguish. The only thing I felt was unconditional love and my father’s presence. He died 28 years ago! He took my left hand and welcomed me. I did not perceive myself as being dead. I felt only happiness, no more pain and on top of that, I was with my father. I wanted to go further and through the door but my father sent me back to terrestrial life without giving me any time to argue. He said goodbye, which seemed impossible.

When I returned, I felt lost but in a great state of mind. I was once again racked with pain. I just wanted to return to my father’s love. For many weeks, even months afterwards, I was lost in my own world and few people understood my state of mind. This experience changed my entire life.
