Renee's NDE at 5 - "I Was Moving Up Into The Sky"

*Warning: Contains Some Discussion of Abuse

Not all NDEs come from happy places. When Renee Christine Martine was five years old, her father — a former member of the White Fence Gang hiding from the Mexican mafia behind a Jehovah's Witness conversion — came home in a rage and sent a tent pole into her face.

Thirty-one stitches, a 45-minute drive bleeding out in a station wagon, and something else: floating above the farm looking down, a mysterious woman no one else could see, and absolute love and peace on the other side of it all.

She has no paper that says she died. She doesn't need one for us to know it was a near death experience (NDE). What she came back with — apparitions appearing in her bedroom, premonitions that spooked her parents, a ghost in a pea coat outside her window at 16, and a lifelong magnetism for paranormal phenomena — made it pretty clear something had shifted permanently.
