Experience description:

I was taking a shower and I was crying really hard. I wasn't ready to get out of the shower so I decided to continue to take a bath. As I was in the tub crying uncontrollably with my eyes closed. I then saw myself standing outside on a side walk in front of a house I had never been to at the time. But yet I was just standing there I think waiting for something. It was a corner house in the middle of a nice neighborhood. I was alone.  Then as i looked to my right on the corner where the stop sign was, I saw a young girl walking towards me. I do not know where she came from. She was a small build and she had short brown hair and she was wearing bell bottoms hip hugger jeans and a pullover blue striped shirt. She didn't have any make up on and she looked a bit ragged. I didn't want to stare at her but I couldn't help to keep looking. I thought she was going to walk on by me since I had no never seen her before and didn't know who she was.

As she got closer to me I stepped back so she could walk on by me and then she stopped right in front of me. She put her hands on my shoulders and said to me, "I'm Heidi." I raised my head to the left and upwards as to ask God what this was all about, but before I was finished with the question I was somewhere else. Heidi is my 18 year old daughter who died in a car accident 5 months prior to this experience. 

This time I was alone again but in clouds of grays. I was very comfortable I remember and I was very content. All of a sudden I was being told about a girl who has lived a miserable life. This girl has many times tried to kill herself and Heidi wanted so badly to come back to live on earth with us all again. I was told that the two of them and God has agreed to try and see if Heidi and this girl would trade places.

Now I was also told that there were some things that Heidi would have to do for this girl if this change took place and then and only then could Heidi come and tell us that this was her. I was not believing what I was seeing so periodically I would open my eyes to see if I was still in the tub and I was and I could see this all happening between my eyes and the tub.

A

t some point my other daughter, Nicole, who had been sick and had been in bed then came into the bathroom and said, "mom are you ok?" I then opened my eyes and not aware at the time I was still crying uncontrollably said to her "yah, why?" she said because I had been in the tub for a long time crying and she was worried about me.

Then throughout that week I was seeing visions of this girl's life with her mother who was a terrible person to her and at one point I was about a foot from the ceiling of a hospital room looking in on this young girl as she laid there unconscious in this bed. Then to my right from the corner of the room about a foot from the ceiling I saw a beautiful beam of light that was round and it went straight into the head and shoulders of this girl laying in this hospital bed. Then I watched as this girls head slowly moved up into this light and then her shoulders and then her body and as she moved upwards her head stayed the same but her body changes into more of a fetus then she was gone. It was right away then that Heidi started coming down head first into this tunnel or beam of beautiful lights. But it was clear that Heidi was still dead. She stayed the same as she went through this light and then she laid right down into onto the hospital bed where this girl had laid. But Heidi's body laid into this other girls body.

T

hen the beam of light disappeared and this girl was waking up. Then someone came into the room that this girl did not know. It wasn't until the next day that I told anyone because i was not sure what had happened. I thought I must be losing my mind.

I had never heard of anything like this before and I was not sure what to think of all of this. For a week this went on - me seeing this girls life as it was for her and then the first Friday night after this I decided to go to a website that i had been going to recently and I shared with them what I had experienced and asked them what level of crazy was i on. Then all of a sudden I was bombarded with many questions about walk-ins. I about fell off my chair when I heard there was a name for this and was so shaken up by this answer that I had to get off the computer and go do something normal for me and that was to go play bingo lololol. Since then I have learned by at least two different mediums that this was not going to happen any more because this girl was not ready yet to give up her life and so this change was not going to happen anymore. I was told I got to witness this change as it was actually happening and it was the most beautiful thing I ever saw, that beam of light.

They were surprised I had no idea what I was witnessing but they knew it was real. The they explained it to me.

Yes many many years before this experience I had a obe but did not know what had happened I only knew that I could feel myself up on a cloud and my loved ones were pulling me back down. but this was in 1982 and I had no idea about this spiritual stuff until the death of my daughter and that was 3-14-98 and the reason that I went in search of this was due to Heidi's drivers license # backwards being the exact date she died even the letter in front. let me share with you what I live with now. her D.L# is B 7172413 Heidi hit a Bridge the letter B and start in the back with the 3 for March the month she died and then 14 the date she died and then add 7 and 2 are 9 and then 7 and 1 is 8 for 98 3-14-98 and she hit a Bridge. When I noticed this a few nights after her services I was in shock and totally beside myself I couldn't believe my eyes. So I had no idea about any of this spirituality at all prior to this. I then went to a library to look up coincidences because I had no idea what else to call this. Well I found this and it led me to the words phenomenal and then to mediumship and that's where it all started and I now live in this new and wonderful world but to many I am just crazy lololol. They are now realizing that I am not crazy since John Edwards and James Van Praagh have there TV shows out.
