I was 19 years old and having a medical check on the GP's bed. At this time I had an epileptic fit and I was told that they couldnt find a pulse. At this time, I felt myself move to the top of the room and turn and look back at myself. I turned back towards the ceiling and went towards a dark light which was a bit like outerspace.

I felt panicky at this stage and felt that this must be what pergatory actually was. I remember panicking at how long I would be there for and where would I end up.

I then travelled towards a very bright white light, which the further into the white light I travelled the more people were along the tunnel that knew me from generations ago. I didnt know them all but they knew me. Then a couple of my relatives who had passed previously, said what are you doing here? then another person said that it's too early for me and I have a long time to go before Im due to be there.

I felt like I wanted to know more about where I was and felt I was being pulled into this new world.

Then someone got hold of my hand and said, its time you went back. It's not your time to be here at just this moment.

I remember feeling that I wanted to be here, but I had to listen to what they (my relatives) were telling me. One of the relatives said that there will be something that will happen to me which will set me back a couple of years when I am in my mid 40's. Then another relative told another relative to stop telling me as I wasnt meant to know. They pulled my hand quite firmly and then I remember being back in my body and still paralyzed and unable to move, but I could hear everything that was going on in the room. The panic of the doctors trying to revive me. I started to try to force myself to wake up, which I did and I was able to tell them what had happened.

But of course, people dont always believe in near death experiences. So I have only told the story a few times. I am now in my early 40's and am ready for the thing they mentioned that will set me back. Although I dont know what it will be. Only time will tell.
