Timothy G NDE

Experience Description

I was down on the floor, on my hands and knees. I couldn't hardly breathe and my mouth became the driest it has ever been. But I couldn't stand up to get a drink, so I crawled to the bathroom to get water. The water just ran out of my mouth. I crawled out of the bathroom to my couch. I grabbed my cellphone and sent a text message to Jackie, 'Jacie, I think I'm dying.' That's all I said. I don't know how long it was before Jackie showed up at my house. She was yelling, 'The door is locked.' I managed to crawl to the door and unlock the door. I briefly told her what was happening. She brought me some water to drink. I couldn't explain fully what was happening and water still was running down my mouth and not going down.

Jackie began asking me, 'Is it your heart? Where does it hurt?' I told her that I don't know what it is but it hurts all over my body. Jackie repeatedly asked me, 'Do you want me to call an ambulance?' I replied, 'No.' I remember Jackie took my hand and held it.

I was by myself on this journey, feeling lost. The first vision that I saw were the scariest forms of human beings that I'd ever seen in my life. I was so terrified by what I was seeing. Seven or eight creatures began to surround me, trying to grab me. It was as if they just wanted to touch me.

I felt someone take my hand. I recognized my mom. She looked 30 to 40 years younger than when I last saw her. She was a very beautiful person. We began to walk. She took me to a path that was the most beautiful place I'd ever seen. The light that lit the path was soft and peaceful. The landscaping was something I just wanted to touch and hold onto. The path was winding and long, but the distance seemed to get less and less the further we went. I was so overwhelmed by the beauty of where I was that it controlled my body. We went around halfway around a bend in the path.

I noticed two women looking at me, then realized they were my grandmas. They were so beautiful. I'd never seen my grandmas in that body form.

My mom and I were still walking down the path. David is my only child and my mom's only grandchild. I told my mom that I can't leave David this way. The further we walked, the more beautiful it became. I told my mom again that I cannot leave David right now as I felt that I would be abandoning him. And I didn't want to go any further down the path. I remember asking my mom to please take me back so I can see David. I was led with my mom still holding my hand. She let go of my hand.

My eyes opened and my hand was in Jackie's hand. My whole body felt good. I was able to breathe easily and I was able to drink water. To this day, I know that I died. I left my body to see things that I could never envision my earthly life. I know that my mom brought me back here to spend more time with David. What took place that night is all I see now.
