NDE's - anyone ever have one?

[Adrianna]

What I just posted on another thread about my father brought this back into the forefront of my thoughts - did anyone ever have a near death experience, or know anyone who has?? I find them fascinating, although it's hard to believe from my standpoint. Just curious if anyone knows anyone who had this happen, I've read a few books on the subject and can't help but be curious.

Interesting question. . .

Never had one myself, but several people I know and respect claim to have; and whether they got an actual glimpse of the "great beyond" or not, I believe they believe they did. . .

I suppose like you Adrianna I'm septical, but then I'm skeptical about everything, so it's certainly possible they experienced something other-worldly. . .

I have! I was in a head on collision that almost took my life.

Let's see if I can explain it. Unlike others, I did not see THE light, but I was surrounded by light. It was a light the color of which I can't describe. It wasn't gold, it wasn't yellow, it wasn't brown, it wasn't white, it was just a beautiful golden color that I haven't ever seen before and doubt I will ever see again. The light was very, very warm. Not hot, just warm. In the light were 10's or 100's of spirits. They were reaching out to me with love, pure love. Pure, unconditional, comforting love. I knew I was dying and was fighting to stay alive, I didn't want to leave, but the warmth and the love almost made me want to go. I decided I would go and relaxed in the warmth of the love and the light. Then I heard Him. I didn't see Him, but I heard Him. He said, "You can go now. You are loved. Enjoy life." With that I had the sensation of coming out of the bottom of a deep, deep dark well. I could hear voices around me (real voices, not spirits ). For a few minutes I became aware of my surroundings, people and the accident sceen before I went out again.

WillyJ thinks it was the morphine they gave me , but I know it was real and it was a near, near death experience. I wish I had a heart smilie. Everytime I think of it, it makes me beam with love.

I'm not afraid of dying at all!!!!!!!!! I'm not ready, but if it is my time, I'm not afraid!

You're septical? Does that mean that you are full of.......

I know someone who has, and that person has related their story to me several times. I believe them. I also promised I'd never tell who it was, so I can't give details.
