Near-death experiences

I was fresh out of high school and I lived a promiscuous life first of all and a life of drugs I used drugs as well as drink use drugs drink until I just got to the point to where I overindulged didn't crack cocaine which led to my experience one morning waking up and doing my daily routine stretching in yawning and one stretch I believe caused a heart attack I felt my heart beating real fast and as my heart was beating real fast I went off into a coma-like State and I just remember bright lights one being red one being real bright and I felt myself drifting as I was drifting I was begging not to not to die but as I was begging not today I could I can it was one thing to see the light but then here to hear the voices one telling me just to come on and one telling me I'll give you another chance and so at that point I thought to make a commitment that to God if he let me allow me to live that I will live for him that until the day I die I just wasn't ready at that time as we were coming through a intersection the light was red and I was slowing down to stop and when I took my foot off the brake and then put on the gas to go ahead and you know go ahead kind of coast through the light the last thing I remember is taking my foot off the brake and I was coasting through the intersection and then the next thing I knew I was in a different place it was kind of like sheer material all around me it was a light and it was like a golden color and it was kind of like what I think of as being in a cocoon it was really warm and I could see someone just on the other side of the material or the you know the good on the outside of the cocoon that I knew was my dad after it seemed like I had been there for quite a while I remember looking down to my left and looking you know pretty pretty far down and I could see my family they each you know had their own combination of colors that were you know like swirling around their bodies and yet coming out and raised and that was when I knew that that it was time to go back and the next thing that I knew then I was you know I was waking up in the nurses were telling me that I had been in a wreck it was Sunday May 5th 1991 I was in Brookside estates off of 161 at a friend's house we were home alone we started playing in the hot tub the ends of my hair got caught in the pump of the hot tub it pulled me underwater I remember being underwater looking out of the water the friends I was with thought that I was joking once they realized I was stuck one of them ran downstairs to get scissors the other one went to call nine one one nine one one actually had failed that day and never responded it rang busy they tried over and over again I probably held my breath for a minute a little over a minute and I can remember saying to myself I can't hold out any longer I'm going to let it in I blacked out probably at that point they put me in the ambulance while I was in the ambulance I can remember them asking me my name date you know what year it was last thing I remember before I went into a coma was one of the doctors saying she's about to go into shock she's going to go into a coma she's going to be in the coma for four months if she comes out of it at all that's the last thing I remember um then I was in a coma in Children's Hospital on the fifth day of the coma I talked to this out loud my mother was to the right of me I started screaming get this guy out of my room get this guy out of my room my mom's confirming there's nobody in the room she went and got one of the nurses as I looked up laying in the bed an guy he was very tall he has long dark hair a long dark beard trench coat he had red eyes and he had a knife and behind him is the was a bright light as he was walking towards me the light got stronger and stronger I'm screaming get this guy out of my room get this guy out of my room to the left I look up to my left and I see an image there was really no body a lot of white it was a girl she was probably my age 10 or 11 she had blond hair and blue eyes and she looked at me and smiled I looked back at her smiled she walked from the left of me to the end of my bed grabbed the guy by his wrist the knife dropped his eyes turned blue he turned around walked out of the door the light did follow him out the door shut the door which didn't really get shut and that's when I woke up from my coma when I saw the guy come into my room I think that was my choice whether to live or die and obviously I chose to live and I believe there was a reason behind that I don't know what it is yet I have not found it yet but I truly believe there's a reason why I'm here to me now I'm excited about what's what's coming next instead of being fearful about it I'm you know kind of looking forward to it but you know I'm happy to be here too I think at that point I became a hardcore believer that one can really die and not come back but I had the opportunity to come back to share it and I'm glad that I did
