I Died & Met Mary - My Near Death Experience at Age 7 | NDE
What Researchers Found
The Story
The experiencer was a child who nearly drowned at a community swimming pool. She jumped into the water and lost control, spinning and taking in water. At the bottom, she felt relief and saw a vivid nativity scene with Mary, who smiled at her. She felt loved and wanted to approach Mary but was suddenly pulled out of the water. Afterward, her father was angry and upset, while her sister asked if she was scared. The experiencer later learned she had not been breathing and had been resuscitated. This realization changed her understanding of the event. She felt that children do not suffer when they die and believed that we do not die but move on, keeping our personalities intact.
“and felt so relieved that the spinning had stopped. I felt really good and totally in control of my movements, and I was able to swim now, didn't think at all about breathing.”
