9:40pm Someone whos property I hit arrives to help calls ambulance, Fire Brigade cuts me from wreckage of vehicle.
11pm Taken to Hospital constant prayer is "please God let me live, I have to marry the love of my life."
11:30pm Arrive at hospital, say the final words of Jesus - "into your arms I commit my soul."
Following this feel brain shut down like my life was all a big movie, see a tunnel first words All I ask is "Where are you Jesus?" Then I share my final judgement with a family member who died when I was a toddler.
Following this ready to ask 2 questions -
1. Am I dead?
2. Can I speak to a friend who died in idential circumstances to me 17 years before. Spoke to my guardian angel, who in the name of Jesus forgave me and asked I am I ready to go. I said "yes".
Then went to farewell love of my life in dreams and couldn't do it. Said "I'm ready to go back".
