Jeffrey W's Experience

Experience description:
My
physical body was lying on the living room floor curled up and I was in immense
pain, then I was up to the ceiling looking down at myself rolling about on the
floor holding my stomach, curled up crying with pain, but I, up in the ceiling I
felt no pain, I was just watching myself on the floor. at the time I told my
mother (who is still alive) that I could see the other children from my school
outside the house leaving bunches of flowers against the walls (I can remember
this account but not talking / telling my mother. Around this time 12 noon a
doctor arrived I remember seeing him standing over my body. I was then taken to
the hospital and operated on immediately by 12.20 (I only know the times because
my mother later on (maybe 1,2 years later) The next time I was myself I was in a
hospital bed, I don't remember if this was the next day, 2 days, 3 days. My
appendix had perforated and I was being poisoned, if I remember correctly I was
