I had a feeling of unconditional love and it was if all of a sudden I knew everything. I knew we were here to help one another and to love one another. The bad things that happen are because we are given free will and it is a choice as to what we make of it. After passing on in this life, there is no judgement against you no matter what you did in this life.
I had been sick and I was going to have my gall bladder removed because that is what was thought to be the problem. My doctor had just gotten off the phone with me and I told her I felt like I was going to pass out. I sat up and filled a small waste can with blood. I managed to put on my coat and make it to my husband's vehicle where I collapsed in the front seat. It was a cold, gray winter day, but I remember seeing a beautiful blue sky.
I vaguely remember arriving at the emergency room and the nurses trying to get me in a wheel chair. That is when the indescribable feeling of peace came over me. I remember looking down and seeing my glasses lying in the seat of the wheel chair and wondered how I was able to do that. I had no pain. I then remember my husband sitting in the chair. I was holding his face in my hands and he was crying.
Then I don't know where I was, but it was a very, very intense blue. I was aware of a presence that spoke to me without using words. Although I did not see the presence, I felt it was male. I was told everything would be okay. I tried to protest, saying I had bills, a husband, and my children. Again, it was as if those thoughts just couldn’t happen.

I remember seeing and speaking to my ex-husband who had died a few months earlier of cancer. 'Yes' I know it was he. Our marriage was not a good one and that is being kind. My ex-husband spoke to me and said, 'We have a date...' My reply was, 'With you? Hell No!' That is when I came back.
My son was on one side of me and my daughter was on the other. Later, after being released from the hospital I tried to tell my husband what had happened, but all he could do was cry. He told me he knew I was gone. I asked him how long I was without any life signs. He said it was about 15 to 30 minutes.
