I told her who I was, and she let me know that she knew me. I shared with her that she was the most truly "Christian" person that I had ever met. That she would travel through a dark scary place but not to be afraid. I told her when she reached the light, that Jesus would be waiting to take her home.
I removed her restraints and reassured her I would stay until she was able to fall asleep. She died peacefully in her sleep early the next morning without ever awakening. She was 96 years old.
I feel my "Near Death Experience" was a spiritual event and I am grateful for that experience. It changed forever, what is important in my life. I have never been as depressed or suicidal again. I became a more confident and assertive person. It was proof of God's existence and a life after death for me.
