The day started out as normal and exciting because it was the first day of summer break. I had planned a lot but as I was forty-six years old, that would be easy for me. The super-mom that I was and who also took care of the farm. My teaching position was being questioned and I had some very rough times but all was smoothing out for now. Except on June 2, my life changed and turned upside down.I was having strong pains in my chest and just three weeks early, I had entered the emergency room thinking I was having a heart attack but to be told it was acid reflux. Again, thinking I was having acid reflux, I just went on picking up things and talking with my younger son and his friends who was assisting me in the classroom. I know that the pain was horrible and I had to stop several times, but when I bent over the trash can and I filled it up with sweat coming down and off my face I knew this was not normal and again the pain. So I went to ask my principal to see what she thought, I must have looked horrible she said you need to go home and rest. I called my older son and he picked me up at school and took me home. My ex-husband called the doctor while I went to the hot tub feeling for sure it was acid reflux, only to have vomited before I got into the hot tub. Now again another sign, but I was not aware of the heart problem then as well. When I got into the hot tub, the pain was so bad I had to get out and go up several flights of stairs to go to my room. I knew something was wrong but did not understand until I went into my bathroom and saw my face pale and my eyes where sunken in my face and dark black circles etched in my face.I heard a voice that said, 'Dear one, go to the emergency room now!' I had heard that voice about twenty-five years before when I had had a bad car wreck, and I was told not to turn that way. Which I did not listen at all and almost lost my life. This time I heard and followed the directions and went to emergency room. I had a massive heart attack in the emergency room.That is when I had started my out of body experience everything started slowing down. I heard a voice telling to be still and stop fighting them. But it felt I was inside of myself and I watching everything from my solar plexus. I am remembering now that cannot be possible. I got there in the day but it appeared I was leaving in the dark or at night. I do remember when I came back into my body is when they lifted me out of the ambulance and the wheels of the table I was on hit hard on the hard surface and I came back into my body thinking this is really like emergency room the series on television. However when I crossed over I met the council and God of the Universe. I viewed my life and several events and realized that we are all one with the Universe so when I hurt someone I was really hurting myself and even more so I was hurting every soul in the Universe. I realized I was pure white light and each soul had a different hue, but I could see them. Many times other souls could not make the viewing so they would walk away from the light. Again, I did not feeling worthy. God's goodness over doubt; that is what I was told, to stop doubting myself and know that I am the light of God. I also traveled through the Universe called the wheel of life, God or the consciousness of God was the center and we are all the spokes of the wheel. I felt what God felt and knew what God knew and it is not of this world of man but a different world all together.
