Linda, this was such a satisfying dive into your NDE. I wrote about my NDE at the age of 7, it's pinned to my profile. Reading your account, I must admit my NDE was so early in life that I didn't have a chunk of life when I *didn't* know how alive Life is. But for me, it was painful because so many sleepwalk through their days and of course, no one believed me. And it was many years before this kind of experience -- which happens to millions of people worldwide -- became better known to the general public.
Thank you, I read it twice. Most likely will read it a third time.
