Flora.

Un accidente tonto, me cai y me saque el codo. Emergencia me llevo a una clinica donde se lucraba internendo a los pacientes sin ser necesario, yo no lo sabia entonces,el anestecista me dijo que aplicaria un poco de anestecia y que dormiria 20 minutos. Eran las tres de la tarde de un dia domingo. Me desperte al mediodia del lunes intarnada, y fue en el despertar que tuve la experiencia que pudo haber sido un ECM, no se si mi vida corrio o no peligro, estaba sola, nadie cuestiono nada,por lo tanto no se que paso en realidad, tampoco yo pedi explicaciones despues, solo abone la internacion y me fui contentisima por la hermosa experiencia vivida. Venia flotando por un tunel, no caminaba ni volaba, solo avanzaba flotando, no sentia mi cuerpo, creo que no lo tenia, iba contenta y en paz, el tunel estaba formado por cubos luminosos engarzados unos con otros y al final se veia una luz potente pero no encandilaba, me dirigia a la luz y junto a mi estaban mis padres ya fallecidos que me acompa�aban con su presencia, solo senti que ellos estaban conmigo, a un costado del tunel vi a mi hermano y su esposa, que aun viven, y le dije, aqui es hermoso, papa y mama estan conmigo.Al llegar al final del pasillo Jesus me estaba esperando, vestido de blanco resplandeciente y con infinita ternura me tendio la mano para que cruzara hacia el otro lado, pero yo le dije, no puedo, mi hija me necesita, aun es muy peque�a y solo estoy yo para cuidarla. Entonces senti, el dedo gordo de la mano que sobresalia del yeso y escuche la vos de mi hija que con una vecina habia venido y hablaban, de poco me fui despertando con una sensacion de paz y amor como nunca la habia tenido y que me duro varios dias. Esa experiencia fue importante en mi vida dado que muchas cosas cambiaron a partir de ella, creo que me volvi mas humana, mas tierna. Flora
