Rick H Possible NDE 4228

Experience Description

My kids had just got off the bus and we were talking and I was telling them that I love them and was talking to them. (I mention this because that is my last memory of that day.) I wake up four days later in the critical care unit, where my wife tells me I seized while I was asleep in our bed.

During the time I was out: I continually had a white veil covering my physical eyes. During which time I could hear arguing in the background, all the while getting a strange feeling as though it were all over me. Yet there was only one voice that I could hear clearly. I heard the accusations against me. Those words still to this day ring in my mind. Afterwards, I was standing above the world looking down upon it, just as I saw the creation begin and every man and woman that is upon the earth today, then I saw a fire spread across the land for I then knew many answers. At this point, I began to feel heavy as I realized I saw my body lying lifeless in a bed with a blanket on it. I became so heavy and painful and feelings I would not wish upon my worst enemy.

The veil is removed. I opened my eyes and I see two women, one giving me more drugs to bring me back, asking me if I know where I am. My beautiful wife as I tell her I love her. Once released from the hospital I told my wife of these things as soon as we were in the car and passed out for several more days. She then had to take me to a Veterans Affairs hospital.

For many days after being released from the hospital, I would know strangers from having seen them before. This drove me nuts. Now I can hardly remember anything.

Clinical death (cessation of breathing or heart function or brain function) My brain was seizing and would not stop, could not breathe, had me breathing on machines because my brain had used up all the oxygen it could produce, my lungs were collapsed.
