This happened at about the same time. Again I woke at night and although I was still in the ward, I had a visitor. An old friend, who died a long time ago. She was sitting by my bedside legs tucked underneath herself and reading in a pool of light cast by my bedside lamp.
It was odd to find a visiter at night (basically unheard of) but as I could tell at once that it was the kind of waking I wasn't going to fall back asleep from a visitor was welcome.
We made polite and friendly conversation for a while. Before she asked 'Adam you do remember I'm dead right?'
To which I replied. 'Yes, [Name] I remember I came to your funeral. But it seem rude to comment on it and unnecessary. Unless you didn't know in which case I didn't want to be the bearer of bad news'.
Understandably she burst out laughing and said. 'Oh Adam that's the most 'Adam-ish' think you've ever said. You're also taking this very calmly.'
To which I replied, 'Well I'm a little concerned that you've come to escort me to 'the other side, but you'd be a surprising choice. But I think you're probably a manifestation of my unconscious, probably my id. So I am in effect talking to myself'.
She stopped laughing and said. 'Your id, wow that's rude'.
After a pause I asked have I caught glimpses of you on earlier occasions? Although nothing as tangible as this?
She responded, 'I have paid the occasional visit, but I can't say if you saw me or not'.
After that she said that I should go back to sleep because I needed my rest. And in the morning when I woke up she'd gone.
As I said when I wrote about my other near-death experience. My memories from this time are very patchy to say the least. Tiny fragments here and there, and I also know from reports that I was hallucinating at this time as well. Interestingly enough I have memories of those hallucinations but try not to 'visit' them to often because they're unpleasant and I don't want to reinforce them.
This experience feels different.
