Almost Went to Heaven

I am writing about my husband's NDE as he related it to me. He had a severe stroke which left him with many handicaps and unable to return to work. As soon as I was able to see him in the hospital room, he told me that he almost went to heaven.

He went through a tunnel and to a light so bright that he needed shades, but the light did not hurt his eyes. Things were shiny and glistening. God talked to him. His voice was loud like thunder. He was huge and behind a cloud. He said he learned that God was the universe. He is love and never ending. He is in every blade of grass. It was calm and peaceful.

He told my husband that he had to go back; his work wasn't finished. He was told God sends us people to help us get to heaven, a handle to God. He told me there were several levels; he was on the brightest level. Below are darker and darker levels. He told me he was in an in between place, "the other side," and people were around him in white gowns, like sitting on a train. He saw his brother-in-law that passed away about a year before.

Before this experience, my husband was unsure of an afterlife and cussed a lot. Afterwards, he never cussed again. When he got angry, he would say cuss, cuss. He told his daughter, "Jesus sits on the right hand of God." He never would have talked this way before. He was different. He didn't like violent movies, liked different foods, and was very loving and patient despite his handicaps.

Two Brushes Unnoticed

I drowned when I was five years old. I choked on water at first, then stopped fighting it and felt fine. I marveled at the beauty of the green water and colors of the fish, and watched calmly as their mouths opened and shut as they swam by or bumped into me. Then I rose to the top of the water. I could either look beneath or over it, or go up. I went up in the sky and hovered over the pond. I saw my mom and sister on a blanket sunbathing and talking. I saw my brother at the edge of the pond; he was on my board that I had been floating on. That’s what caused me to drown. I could only dog paddle, and I used the board to get out in the middle of the pond, when he took it I sunk. As I hovered and watched them, I was angry that I had died and no one even noticed.

The Fastest Roller Coaster Ride Ever

While in a coma, I remember being sent through a tube. It felt like I was on a roller coaster except this ride was much faster. I say “sent” because it was a surprise; I didn't feel like I made a choice to enter the ride. It was as real as any amusement park ride I've ever been on. I never felt like I was in danger. I remember that it took me through various events of my past, such as times I spent at my grandparents’ house during my youth. I remembered going to the corner store to buy wrestling magazines and then walking back to their house.
