Suddenly I found myself at the end of a dark tube (I don't know how I got to this point). There was a very luminous, blue light, with a fuzzy look. I saw many people coming towards me. When they were quite close, I recognized my mother (deceased 1995) with my father (ditto 1972), my grandparents (1966 and 1971), my great-grandmother (1970) together with my great-grandfather, whom I never knew. All of them, and me too, were about 35 years old. All, and me too, were dressed in a blue tunic tied at the waist by a cord. There were also many other people that I had no time to recognize. They were all welcoming towards me. When Mom came near me, she said: "It's not your time to come here now; you still have things to do on earth. Go back and fight". This was not the kind of language my mother used, previously.

Straight after this, I was sucked back into the tube through which I had arrived, and catapulted into a corner of my (hospital) room. I was there, dazed, in a foetal position, and I could see my body on a bed (with yellow sheets), with a lot of people milling around me. A woman applied the defibrillator paddles and I was lifted up from the corner of my room and thrown back into my body.

I began to talk about this to my family as soon as I emerged from my foggy state. My husband has never been able to confirm to me whether I had defibrillation; it was only a year later that a doctor confirmed this to me.
