The medical condition was something I suffered alone and in agony for many weeks prior to being rushed to the ER in 1966.  It took many weeks of tests to determine the cause of my ‘near-death’ experiences.   Read More »

When I was 6 years old, I started first grade. Like most kids that age, I didn’t like leaving home and having to walk to a strange location and sit with a bunch of strangers. I complained about it. Around the same time, I started having severe chest pains. Somewhere in the mix of things, my parents had sought advice from other couples who had gone through that stage with their own children. In my parents’ mind, they felt I was creating a ‘false symptom’ to get attention. My cries for help went unheard. Read More »

One of the reasons my parents found my testimony hard to believe – was because I kept telling them that my inside body was being thrown out.  I would be outside my body looking back at it.  This was something I was doing at night during sleep (out of body experiences) so my parents thought I was talking about ‘daydreaming.’  No one had seen me lose my breath until that moment when my Mom found me laying under the bed. I had an episode prior to that and I couldn’t get anyone to take it seriously because I kept talking about ‘being outside’ my body and trying to get back into it. Read More »

The day after the hospital trip, my Dad called me into the kitchen and explained how important it was that I remember my story accurately and correctly.  The Doctors felt there was nothing seriously wrong with me.  My Mom felt there was something seriously about my complaints of chest pains.  What ever had happened, I had gotten my Mom’s attention and she was insisting on more expensive tests to determine the source of what was causing my chest pains.  My Dad told me about the family budget and how the test could prove to be very costly.  It was one thing if they were going to find something wrong and it was another if there was nothing wrong with me.  He said he had to decide based on my testimony.

I had my first NDE hidden from view of my family.  There is controversy surrounding exactly when, where and how the first ‘explosion’ happened in my heart.  My Mom said that I had came home from school one day with a bloody nose.  I was incoherent and dazed.  She said she cleaned the blood off of me and put me in a bath.   She felt I had been traumatized by a bully on my walk home from school.  She could never find any cuts in my mouth or on my outside body.  She felt I was growing up and learning not to mess with bullies.

After my initial ‘hidden’ NDE, I was trying to discover what happened to me.  I had tried to tell my parents that something was wrong but they didn’t understand my words of expression.  I kept telling them that I went ‘flying’ out of my body.  They felt it was my imagination at work. Read More »

My Mom had told me that I could fly to the moon in my dreams.  One night in astral form (out of body)  and I was out in the yard.  I looked up to see a full moon shinning in the sky.  The more I thought about it, the closer it got to me. I had an experience that night ‘out of body’ with the moon.  The next morning, I woke up and ran to my Mom.  I asked her,

“I thought you said I could fly to the moon if I wanted to.  If this part of me (pointing to my body) was sleeping in bed?” Read More »

I would show up and watch the birth process

At one point in my adventures in ‘dreams’ at night, I would show up at the maternity ward and watch as babies were being born.  I would be able to describe the birth process in vivid and rich detail – described through the eyes of a six year old child.   I would describe the ‘spirit’ as it waited for the moment it would ‘crawl’ into the body of the baby.  Depending on when, where and how I showed up for the witnessing would depend on how this ‘spirit’ would change form to talk with me.  It would have an ‘orb’ effect and when it saw me – it would change form to suit my own mind.

At the time, I didn’t understand the words my parents were using.  I would be describing ‘death’ scenes of various individuals outside the hospital setting.  I can recall my parents asking me where I was getting my ideas from away from my dreams.  My parents started watching what shows I had seen on TV.
