Suddenly I began to understand things. I understood why i had cancer and how it was so very important for me to have cancer. In fact it was so important that I would not have it any other way. But I can't explain why it was important I just understood it.

He told me my daughter would come back to heaven which has happened.

He said:" You will become a teacher." But let me explain this new type of teacher. You are going to teach while being in a sort of sleep. However, it will not be the kind of sleep that you know of. While being asleep, you will be able to hear and talk, and they will come to you and ask you questions."

Twenty Years Later

As soon as I knew I must return, I felt myself being slammed into my body. It was a violent, painful and frightening moment. Every time I remember that moment, even now after all these years, I cry. I couldn't believe I had chosen to return. Had I forgotten the pain, the stress, the fear and the limitations of being human? (YES!) How could I have left the peace, the love and joy, the beauty I had come into? I knew I could have crossed the wall. I could have gone on. What a fool I was to return. A few years ago, a friend asked, "If you had a chance again, would you step over the wall?" Without hesitation I answered, "Yes, definitely." She said, "You would leave all you have now?" "Yes, I would." I answered. It's not that I want to leave my children, my husband, my parents and all my friends, but I have come to really appreciate the chance I was given, and when the time is right, that overwhelming feeling of peace will be there for me. There have been times when I have felt so overwhelmed with the difficulties I've experienced in my life, that I have begged God to allow me to return to Him. I have prayed for death, for the chance to experience that wonderment again. I have questioned why I had the opportunity to know how marvelous life after life is, since one of the results has been a lessening of the will to live.

I had three lots of surgery to repair my face, skull, eye socket. Left hospital with Pain, double vision, anosmia, and damage to 8th cranial nerve left me with nausea and disturbed balance. I was for two years angry at G-d, for sending me back in such torment, with a task to do with no clues or instructions, only one thing a clear message I have no idea how to pass on, which is " It is time to live according to your Beliefs, whatever they may be, to put you House in order, For the End Times are upon us!" this can't be my task, there was no booming voice, or any way I know the message got there. I am also unsure of the identity of the gatekeeper, no nametag, no introduction! It took me 5 years as a zombie, before I was able to rehabilitate myself, I have gainful employment, formed the Head Injury Society NZ. in 1987, and am paraded as the example of how well it is possible to recover from Acquired Brain Damage. I still don't know my task, still have pain, anosmia, diplopia, etc.

9 of my sons now have been born again, including my eldest son, Larry, who was murdered. I cannot even hate my son's murderers, but rather pray for them that each will be with us in Eternity. That is how powerful my experience with life after death was for me. I have never hated my son's killers, knew who they were and didn't wish vengeance on them. Our Creator is too awesome to deny Him any souls.

Separation and divorce were heart breaking although I did keep the children. I wanted the children and they wanted me and my wife's boyfriend didn't want them. I ended my job as an accountant and went on to become a professor at a local college and it was tough going. Using all my savings and retirement funds to pay bills and keep the family intact during a month long job search cost me what security I might have had in learning new job skills was both challenging and scary at times.

Sarah's NDE

gave myself up to the bliss and learned many things that sound corny when described but are truths for me that resonate through me now and forever. I learned that I am eternal and though I may experience many forms of death, I will always know who I am. I have nothing to fear, only more to experience and I am the one that ultimately chooses what I experience. I have had to face many trials and challenges since my NDE including complete loss of identity, disability, poverty loss of friends due to their inability to understand how the experience changed me, and chronic pain; but the knowledge of the eternity of my spirit and the freedom from the fear of death have created in me a foundation of peace that no temporary physical condition can shake.

I was told that my purpose was a big mission. At this point I watched a future that began to pass before my eyes as if it were a movie made to describe a fairytale and all that the princess ever wished for was granted. I was told that I was meant to lead that I was a healer sent to earth to pave the way for others to live. I was shown a movie of a woman who came to earth to help people find their own individual greatness. She would become very well known in movies, TV, publishing, modeling, changing the idea of how the world looks at women, the fitness industry, and trendsetter. I would travel to different countries to open up the awareness for women and help them to discover their own true divinity. My greatest creations would be that of opening healing centers for women and children and that I would help to open humanitarian foundations for the homeless and people in tragedy and need. I would speak all over the world to large groups of people on topics like anorexia, bulimia, drug abuse, sobriety, and how to discover that unique power within.

Brad K's NDE.

I told my older brother who had rushed to me that I had had the choice to live or die, and he looked at me like there was no possibility that anyone would choose death over life. I told my wife, and my best friend. They did not mock me, but they clearly did not understand. I would find that a common theme. Sometime later at a Christmas Day gathering, I saw the book 'life after life' by DR Raymond Moody. I read the book, (I speed read), and then exclaimed "this!!" holding the book up I said "this is what happened to me, when I was stabbed." I said the only other time I felt anything like this is when I drowned as a child, and how I had felt so warm from the sun. My mother said "Brad, you were face down in the mud when we found you!!" which ended the entire conversation. I sat there in my mothers living room with the family singing carols in the other room. I remember thinking, no one believes me. I am wrong to everyone. I talked a lot about that experience to people over the years, but it wasn't until I heard Dannion Brinkley talk, and describe his experience, that I emerged from my cocoon, so to speak. He talked about his experience, and it was just like me in most ways. But, in someway it was identical. I had never talked to anyone who was proud of their near death experience. I decided I would never again, never, deny nor be embarrassed to say what had happened.

The first year after the accident was an attempt to live the best I could, the happiest I could. I was suffering however from severe pain from a fractured shoulder bone, broken ribs, and two hip fractures. I was told the pain should disappear in six months to a year at the worst. Three years later, the pain has not gone away. The second year however seemed to be the worst. I became so suicidal. All I wanted to do was to return to this place, this life that was so awesome, so love-filled, so joyous.

My doctor told me to "change jobs or die" only this time he said I may stay dead. In November, some scaffolding collapse at on job on a military installation gave me fall that should have killed me. Other than a couple of scrapes and knocking the wind out of me I came out of it unscathed. While I was laying there trying to get my breath back I heard my doctor's voice like somebody ran a tape recorder next to my ear, "Change jobs or die." I never went back to that job.

All that was made, said, done, or even thought without love was undone. It didn't matter. It simply did no longer exist. The love these beings of light exuded healed me, swept away all the darkness in me, erased all of the pain and sorrow I'd accumulated during my life on earth. Earth and the life I'd lived on it felt very distant, was getting more distant all the time, almost like it had never really existed at all. I said: no way, I won't do it. This was about the last thing I wanted to do. Life on earth, filled with darkness, pain, sorrow, limits and limitations, was like a horrifying prison compared to this wonderful place, and I simply refused to go back.

I WOULD BE ASSIGNED A LOT TO I.C.U., AND IT SEEMED EVEN THE WORST PATIENTS HAD LESS PAIN,-OR RESTED BETTER ETC. EVEN SOME OF MY WORKING FRIENDS WOULD COMMENT ON THIS--AND I WOULD JOKINGLY SAY, "OH, IT'S MY MAGICAL TOUCH"__!!

Derry's NDE.

We both knew that returning to this earth would be a struggle because I'd told him that I wanted to return to this earth if I could help myself and others. He knew that I didn't want to live more life on this earth if life meant being trapped in an unresponsive body, unable to communicate. The next thing I remember was being trapped in my body while others cared for my physical needs. I can remember that I could tell what the nurses were thinking about me by how they touched me. I knew if they thought I was going to live or not thru their touch. I knew if they thought they were caring for a basically dead person whose spirit wasn't there. I remember trying to scream out, "Look! I'm alive! I'm in here! I'm going to live!" I relaxed and trusted that person much more if I knew that they knew they were caring for a living person.

There was a boy there who had broken his arm somehow and was frightened by my screams. An intern of a sort tried to stop me from screaming, but to no avail. He was angry at me and I could tell he was truly upset. I don't why this pissed me off but it did. I said to myself....I will show him. I will just leave. Go away in my mind. I knew I could do this, because I had done so often times growing up as a child. (due to molestation) So, there I went. I was in such pain that I just let go. I changed my whole life because of it. Although extremely reclusive, because of the sensitivity I now have, I am learning to reconnect. I had not been able to speak of this until just recently. I have been in constant study and am extremely reclusive. Its strange that I didn't get any faith out of this experience, but it instilled allot of fear of the Lord.

Joanna's NDE.

I have multiple disabilities that keep me at home most of the time. My days are either Good Days or Bad Days, depending on my disabilities. I live with chronic pain in some manner every day from the time I wake up until I go to bed. I am stubborn so I refuse to give into the pain or illness and just live the best and fullest I can for the day. I do think of dying some days. I do wish I would. But I no longer am able to even think of suicide. I do know suicide might not bring me back to where I went in 1992 and I want to do everything in my power to go back there when the time comes. So no matter how hard or tough life gets here. I will sit here and wait. Because Death is not the end of life. Death is an existence that is different from this one and a whole world better... So, I will wait until my time comes to go.

was surprised when he said to me 'I knew you would make that decision'. He didn't make any further comment's, he just nodded his head in agreement and smiled at me. I instinctive just kind of floated there waiting to be sent back. Jesus speaks to me again, in my head not through my ears. He said ' 'I have work to do through you one day' and I thought back to him 'Any time I will do anything you ask' and he said 'You will have a long life'
