In March 2001, I was on my way home from the store from getting a newspaper. It was around 10:30pm. I was running around 60mph when a dog ran out in front of me. And like most people the first thing that I did was swerve. Well, at the speed I was going, I lost control of my car. (I am going to tell this exactly like it happened)

I felt my car go on the 2 driver side wheels, so I snatched the wheel again.....the last thing I remember is seeing a huge tree right in front of me. At that time I knew I was going to die. I screamed..."Oh God, Please no" at that exact moment, everything stopped. I saw my lights on the tree and then I was pulled out of my car and looking down on it. Then everything got quiet. (I'm almost in tears thinking about this.)

When I awoke....or at least what I thought was waking.....I was in front of my friend Noel. (She died 2 years before in a car accident) She was smiling and looking at me. Then...it got a little brighter and I could see shadows of other people. Noel said to me, "You're not ready yet." And then I woke up going into shock in an ambulance.

This is where it gets weird.

The place that I wrecked at is on flat land. No ditches, no hills, no where for me to have gotten thrown out and not be in sight of the guy who found my car. He says that when he saw my car, he knew that whoever was in it was dead. He told me that my radio was on....both doors still shut.....the motor was in the driver's seat and the tree had split my car completely in half. But I was nowhere to be found. He told me that he turned to go back to his jeep to get someone else out there and there I was standing in front of his lights holding my head.(He said it gave him chills, because he had JUST gotten out of his car.) He ran over to me and put me in his car and went to his house so that his wife could call 911. He lived right beside where I wrecked. I was at there house, so I was told, at 10:45....15 minutes after I left the store.

Miraculously...all of the blood from my head was dry. As if someone had stopped the bleeding. But as soon as I woke up in the ambulance.....the stretcher was covered in blood. I ended up having some staples put in the back of my head. But thats not all......I know this is bad to say, but I never wore a seat belt. I was 19 years old. I had a slanted bruise across my chess and it wasnt from a seatbelt. Its as if someone pulled me out of the car. To this day....I know I had an angel pull me out. Because of that accident, I am not afraid to die. I look forward to seeing Noel again and thanking her for saving me that night.
