Dear Betty, I was very surprized to read of your incounteter with Jesus as it was both similar and very different to my own. I too had a near death experience after taking way too much LSD, and i too saw jesus. (A homless man from Chile that was in the park in Vancouver that i woke up in.) He told me very different things however. He spoke of Love and tolerance. He spoke of being kind, understanding and accepting of differences. He spoke of not judging others lest thou be judged. He spoke of allowing others to have the choice of how to live their lives and about not interfearing and projecting our own beliefs onto them. My Jesus was a wise and loverly man, yours sounds like a cold-hearted, manipulative misogenist! I suggest that you would be much better off living your life by the words of the homeless man from Chile. If everyone did this then we would not need to hold onto the hope that everything will be better in heaven as life on earth would be heaven. Something to think about. Serina

Dear Betty, i have just finished reading embraced by the light....it has given me some peace knowing what happens when we pass over.My brother took his own life in January and as you can imagine it has been an awful time for us all.I now know my brother will be at peace and happy where he is. Thankyou so much...im beginning the awakening heart this eveing..hope it is as enjoyable as embraced by the light.thanks again Deborah.x

Found your site and discovered how much I needed it as I explored and read your words. Thanks.

Dear Betty: I have listened to the E.B.T.L. tapes again after 10 years. They now mean more to me than ever since I have had tragedy in my family & a hard current situation. My faith is stronger now & rely on prayer. Thank you.

hey betty my name is megan and i am related to u and i am 15 but i will be 16 in july i dont under stand how to girls could posiable have the same last name could u plz write back ur truely megan nicole eadie

Dear Betty. Thank you and thank God. Although I am going through a long and difficult time in my life, your experience has brought me closer to God and strengthened my faith. My hope is also stronger. Again, thank you. God bless you. See you in time..............

I meant your book "embraced by the light" and forgot to mention that if everyone here has exactly what he has choose for his need of his spiritual development then if i give to a poor family for example money that i realy desire to do that, what's the point if they are the way they are cause they choose that and it is what they need for their spiritual development. Somehow i found no reason now to help someone now, maybe it will be good for my soul but from him no point if he is the way he is and he must be like that.

Betty, I read your book yesterday and i really need to hear what you are talking about inside the book. I am 30 old man very desperate of the world and the people, trying to find a reason to keep going on in this madness. I get no satisfaction of just living, having fun friends with my friends, living with my parents. I realy see no point, i feel i need something more to live for in this cruel world. Anytime i help people who need it i feel joy in my soul, only that time... I have never experience a near death experience but i have read a lot about it and heard from friens that have experience it and i believe it. Your book is great but i just can't realize how can it be that we chose the diseases some of us may sufer from, like i do... And also that jesus came on earth to show us the right path and he has been cros for that, how can it be now to tell you and for all of us the secret's of life so easy if it's a secret since we forget everything the day we enter the human bodys? (Being born) That i found hard to believe. Anyway maybe i am not ready or confused to understand. God bless all.

Betty afew night ago I wrote to you about my son drowning last Father's day on June 16,2002. So this year has been rough for my family to say the least. Your book's have given me so much inspiration,hope and peace about where my son has gotten to be with our Heavenly Father in his spiritual home up above. My reason for writing back so soon is that I can't find the book's; The Soul's Remebrance by Roy Mills and Until Forever by Nancy K. Schriefer.The library told me they can't find these book's. Which upset me greatly, I had been so inspired to keep reading. It helps with pain of losing my. My pride aside, I am asking for help in getting this book's. Our income so liminted at this. My husband is dissabled, and has been for some time. The doctor doesn't want me to go back to work under to much stress. For me it just doesn't seem real, yet maybe never. If there is any one willing to help me to recieve this please I would greatly appreciate it so much. I am trying to keep reading book's, but Betty's book's say so much with love from God. As through they were his word's, we just don't hear them as clear as she does. I am interested in talking with other parent's who have lost their son's and daughter's. I type slow and I am not a counselor, I wish I knew so much. But I would like to keep reading book's of Betty's or book' with the same similiar outlook. Betty, thank you for giving my so much peace about my son going to Heaven. I would love to talk to you so much, I realize your time is so valuable, but I still wish the best for you and your family. Don't stop giving everyone the hope there is a better place after our life here is over.

I first found Embraced about 8 years ago while waiting for my husband at an AA meeting. It has brought much peace and inspiration to my life. I've read, re-read, passed it on, and read it again. Now I'm on The Awakening Heart, ready to share it and looking forward to The Ripple Effect. Just wanted to THANK YOU for sharing your life & love. By the way, my husband has been sober for 8 years now. I'm so happy I found you.

hellow my name is david and im having a problem with ghost ,at night or even day i know that some one is standing next to me .my quitions are why ,and what is the point .and if i miss the point ,then perhaps im going nuts.

Web site nicely crafted

I'm writing from Italy, I read your book many times and I think that God is near me. Your book is the example for mankind because we have to love. We have to bring the message to the others. The message of LOVE. Thanks! Laura

I have read and re-read Embraced by the Light and The Awakening Heart many times. No matter how often I read it I always discover something new, and am able to reflect on somthing currently happening in my life in a new, much more comforting manner. Both books have taught me some much, time and again. I try to re-read them on a regular basis to keep my focus on the path I am meant to take with my life. I just discovered the website today and will be getting the other books in a very short time and I know they will be as uplifting and comforting as the first two. Thank you, Betty for writing the books and sharing your wonderful message. I have thanked God many times over for allowing you to be given such a special mission that you are able to share with literally billions of people around the world and that has touched my spirt in such a wonderful way.

I am on your 3rd book The Ripple Effect Our Harvest, and waiting for the 4th. Some incentaive maybe? I love them all! I am sure the Lord will let you know.

Dear Betty, One year ago I got the call that I would never forget. A call to change my life forever.The caller said my child had been in the water for more than 30 minutes. As my husband and I raced to the sight in hopes that a miracle would have happened. Some one would have saved him. Instead the worst nightmare a parent can go throught had started. My twenty-two year old son, first born , had just drowned. My world stopped.I did'nt want to go on any more, even though I had a wonderful husband, three beautiful daughter's and three grandchildren. Wonderful friend's and family to help me. I just wanted to go to Heaven to be with my son Kevin. I missed him so badly. A friend at my Coping class suggested I read your book Embraced By The Light. A friend knew that I wanted this book, but could not afford it. So she bought the book for me. From the time I started reading your book, I knew where my chid had gone. My son was alway's helping someone else, it was just his nature. He once told me that he would never live to be old. But that he would live in a big house some day. I truly do believe he knew his time was short here on earth. Now he does live in a big house, God's house. I can feel his love around me, and I know he will be with me always. Your book opened my eye's that we come from God and return to Him. I no longer fear death for I know that my son Kevin will be waiting for me along with other family member's. Your book is very special to me. Thank You, so much for writing it. For without it, I may have had no hope. I have read all of your books, and wait for more. After reading your last book, I pray that God hold's your family in his hand gently with Love.

Dearest Betty: I wanted to tell you that my tests came back negative for breast cancer. I went for test in Nov of 2002. I thank the Lord each day for that. My blessings are enormous. My grandchild is due in four weeks time. My very first. Our family is so excited and I pray that my daughter will have a safe delivery. Remember her in your prayers. Her name is Jennifer.

I just would like to say that after reading the book not only reinstated my faith but also gave me so much peace and hope. I cryed so many times while reading the book and afterwards praying I felt such a profound cense of peace that I have not felt in the long time. I just want to say thank you for being the messenger that touched and gave so much hope to so many souls.

Just a quick note to say thank you for the inspiration! I am a young professional in the 'Big City' and have struggled with my beliefs as of late. Your book has refocused my perspective and priorities in life....see you in heaven ;-)

Embrace by the Light, confirmed my purpose is life and all those special friends along the way to light my path! Fear of what "if" seemed to melt away as I read the pages, it was like I already knew the contents of this book! I wish all those I love could read this book!

I received your book "Embraced by the Light," as a Christmas gift after it was released, and I couldn't put it down. I read it all in about three hours. One of the good things that came out of it was that I soon prayed for my daughter's guardian angel to take care of her and protect her from danger, and I know that was the case when just days after I completed reading the book a situation occurred. She didn't wait for me to cross the road with her, and she stepped out into the path of a vehicle, which she was not looking for, but I saw. I called out to her but it was too late, and I feared the worst. What happened next completely surprised me. Everything all of a sudden moved in very slow motion, the car passed through her and when it was all over the car had passed, and she was safely on the other side. I was in complete shock about my very good fortune, and got down on my knees that night and gave thanks to God and his assigned heavenly protector for sparing the life of my most precious and cherished earthly treasure. By the way, this same daughter had given me the book as a present. So thank you for being and doing what you were called to do.

I really enjoyed your books thank you as I have had to many deaths in my imediate family within the past 2 years, your book gave me hope! Thank You

I read Embraced by the Light for the first time a few years ago and the book has totally changed my life. I cried the whole way through the book because it was so uplifting and it filled my heart with joy. Betty, I would just like to say Thank You for having the courage to share your story with all of us because I am a better person for reading this book. I have shared this story with many friends and family and I hope that it will touch their life as it has mine. Thank you.

I have read Embrased By The Light 10 years ago when my brother died. Now my mom has passed over. I feel so alone. But I know they are the lucky ones. To be with our father and in such health! God bless my mother, her passing was very hard for her. She just did not want to let go. I love you mom and you promised to come for me when its my time to leave this world. Betty thank you for your books, they hold so much promise for us left behind. Thank you again for your kindness and knowledge.

I have just read your book for the first time today. All i could do once i finished it was set it down take a deep breath and say wow. Although i already knew all that i read, I needed to be reminded. I lost my mother Donna Sue Jones on November 28, 2002 and we were the best of friends and my life fills uncomprehensable without her but threw your book i found what i needed to be reminded of. You see her death was sudden and i needed to know that she was alright, that god was with her and loving her that she was not left confused but i belive she has found her peace with the lord and now i can begin to live again and find my own peace. Thank you and you will forever be in my prayers!

Hi Betty, Every time I sit down to read any of your books I feel such an outpouring of the spirit seemingly emanating right off the very pages themselves! I feel at peace, and fill the spirit of God around and in me instantly, without fail every time I read your books. Thank you for your guide to prayer and the answers to so many questions those of us who have not had a NDE need to know. I had an out of body experience when I was "born-again" at the age of 16 at the Lompoc Christian Center about twenty years ago. It wasn't until five years later when a friend of mine got me into metaphysics and I learned of astral projection. Then I had figured out that what happened to me was that God lifted me from my body just for a moment to teach me faith and the fact that the spirit does not rely on the physical body for existence. Keep up the great work you are doing and please pray for God to show me my calling for I now know that we all are, I am just waiting for him to show me the venue. LOVE, LIGHT, PEACE, and BALANCE.......Stephen

Betty, I first read Embraced by the Light 8-10 years ago, before I was walking with the Lord. It made such an impact on my life, and began a journey for me that has been truly wonderful. I just re-read it, and having a bit more knowledge of the Bible, am amazed at the Biblical truths found in your message. You're beautiful!

Hi Betty, When I was younger my Dad would listen to the audio version of embraced by the light in the car. I was to young to understand it fully, but now I recently bought the book and have read it twice. It has given me hope and faith.

I read Embraced By the Light two years ago after I my first son was stillborn at 30 weeks (March, 2001). I lost another son at 29 weeks this past summer. Words cannot express how much comfort your books brought me-especially The Ripple Effect. I have experienced many circumstances in my life that many of the chapters of the Ripple Effect helped me to understand and brought me comfort. Medical experts were never able to give me a reason for my precious babies' untimely deaths, but it brings me great comfort in knowing that they are in the loving arms of our Lord and Saviour. I also have two wonderful daughters here with me and a wonderful husband, so I have had many blessings too. Thanks for sharing your experience through your wonderful books. You have brought comfort to a lot of people.

Dear Kindred Spirit, I am going to share a portion of my story, that has gone untold until your book found me. Your book "Embraced by the light" was stacked in the corner of a bookstore quite out of the way, as I was going to walk out. I stopped, picked it up, and went back to the register. I knew nothing about your book and had never heard about it either. But, I needed your book, more than I could have ever imagined, as I walked out the door. I was in in a terrible car accident as a child. I was ejected from a vehicle and subsequently in a coma for five days. They told my parents my brain had swollen so much that an positive outcome was not expected. I had an experience while I was "sleeping" which I have known in my heart to be true, but goes against many of the religious teachings of my youth. I know now just how real my experience was and I fell free to share it. Thank you for sharing your story.

Dear Beattie, Just wanted to let you know that my sister shared your book with us many years ago, last week she passed away and her son placed her very weathered copy with her as a last good bye, Going thru her things she had left a new copy and wrote a note to her son, that she hope he would read it so he could understand where she was. Thank you for giving her the message she had looking for all her life.

As everyone else says..embraced by the light changed my life..it awakened me spiritually as never before..i thought noone else in the world could answer the questions about god and life with an answer that i could "buy" so to speak. All the questions i asked were answered with biblical quotes and things that didnt make real sence to me..and then brushed aside with the "we dont always understand Gods ways" Well i feel like this book answered my questions with answers that made perfect sence!! I Love it! Thank you for sharing your experience! God Bless You ---- Carma

Dear Betty First of all, God bless you for being here in the world and for writing the book, it changed my life, God bless you for that. I read the book four times and i can´t get enough of it. All my life I searched for some answeres about God and why we are here, I didn´t really know what to believe untill I read your book. Thank you so much for changing my life for much better and for open up my eyes. I will always remember the meaning of my life, through good and bad I won´t forget. Bless you for giving me strength to carry on. I´ve been living the best way that I can since the book. And I plan to live that way for a long time. Somehow the problems that I´ve had become easier to handle. Your book helped me to find my way. Once again thank you so much.

Betty, I first read your book, Embraced by the Light, at the age of 14, some 10 years ago. Quite simply, your words changed the way I viewed this life. I was a desperate teenager in search of something real. I was in the depths of a life that brought much destruction to my my spirit. I questioned the existence of God. Betty, your experience amd insight spoke to me in a way that can only be understood with the soul. Your book brought me back to the place where everything is just spiritual. But alas, I went back into the world and the deeply felt connection was seemingly lost. An addiction to drugs and alcohol dominated my life. There were brief periods of sobriety which brought me to your subsequent books. Each reading heightened my connection to God and brought me to a deeper understanding. One of the issues discussed in The Awakening Heart that spoke to me was abortion. Of course I don't need to remind you of the disasterous affects of abortion. God really did something inside of me and spoke almost audibly as to the significance of this travesty. Again, the warm and fuzzy feeling was short lived. I returned to alcohol. In 2001, after several stays in rehab centers, I found myself pregnant. My life was mess. Everyone, especially my mother advised me to get an abortion. Though my life was in shambles, my awareness was forever changed. I knew, Betty, that this baby was another soul that wanted to come to this realm for spiritual growth. I knew with great profundity that I was to have this baby. And I did. Betty, I can tell you enough how much you have affected my life. I now work at a pro-life crisis pregnancy center and I'm sober. Embraced reintroduced me to the remberance aspect of life. That's what it is like when I read your books or another creation of the Spirit; my spirit remembers. With love, Brooklyn

Dear Betty, I have read your books and watched your videos, it is nice to know that what I knew as a child was in fact real. Although I never had a near death experience, I just felt safe everytime I prayed and spoke directly to my angels and guides. This was a natural thing for me to do. I always received answers, and always felt at peace. I never feared death and still don't. All of my life my family and friends thought I was different, and could not understand my trust in the Creator and the Universe around me. This trust has carried me through many hardships, and probably more to come; but I know I am at one with Him and that I am Loved and loving. Thanks for validating what I knew to be the truth. Love & Light to you

Hello Betty and everyone at Onjinjinkta I have read and reread all of Bettys work for the past 5 years.I even sent Betty some stationary with roses on it . Thank you for the autographed picture in return I will treasure it always. I'm sorry I did not make it out to the 10th anniversary celebration,I could not get the time off. I did purchase a copy of the video and found it extremly inspiring. thank you all for everything you've done and do, Love Gary F. P.S. I need your prayers I am going through a lot of heartache and I often feel hopeless please pray for me G.

Dear Betty ... I was raised Lutheran but am ROMAN CATHOLIC. However ... I believe in your books so hard heartedly! They have been such a help since I my parents died very close together several years ago. Thank you for the time you have spent helping others MARIA

Leí HE VISTO LA LUZ hace cinco años, he regalado como diez libros o mas, pero ahora estoy muy triste porque ya no lo encuentro en México. Creo firmemente en lo que dice el libro, es Maravilloso. Muchas Gracias por haberlo escrito. Por favor que abran mas ediciones. Yolanda Luque

Betty, a friend lent me Embraced By The Light a week ago, I am reading it still. Every chance I can have some time to myself away from my 3 lovely children I read it. I need to have quiet time when I read it to absorb every word and think about all that you went through in your beautiful experience. I love your book and have cried many tears because I realize that some of the things you mention have either happened to me or I understand it clearly, it makes perfect sense. Thanks for this book, I just recently bought The Awakening Heart. I can't wait to get started on that one and buy your other ones. God has blessed you with your experience and you are blessing us all with your knowledge. Love you

I read your book at a time in my life when I needed it the most. To say it changed my life is an understatement. I was a 23yr. old widdow who just burried her 25yr. old husband and I was in complete termoil. Thank you for your gift of love and enlightenment. I am now a nursing student and seem to have most things in order in my life. You and your experience are such a gift, I always think of you warmly and send you much love. God Bless!!

I read "Embraced by the Light" and wept. Thank you for touching my heart.

I have read Embraced By The Light about five years ago and I enjoyed it very much. I am almost done reading The Awakening Heart. I'm enjoying this book very much also. You have been a comfort to so many people all over the world, and I am so glad that God gave you this mission to fulfull. It is so helpful for those who do not know how much our Father in Heaven loves them. I have one question though I know you probly won't be able to answer because you are such a very busy person. The question is this, I love Father God very much as I do Jesus, how do you feel Jesus fits in with all of us? I mean He died for our sins, and we are supposed to follow Him right? Do you believe that He died for our sins or is He just is to help us in the flesh when He was on earth? I get confused sometime and have been on this subject throughout my life? I have the upmost respect for you and would like your opinion on this if you have the time to address this sometime. Sincerely, Your friend in Jesus Sandie

iam enjoying your site and hopeing to tead your books very sone love and peace to everyone.

About oh I don't know, maybe 8 yrs ago I was in a program AA (12 step) with no god. Your book changed my whole life and I was finally able to begin to grow and still continue today. My life is not all better but I learn through pain and happiness. I will never be able to thank you enough for sharing your experience.

I just read your book and I completely feel loved after reading it. I did not put it down once and I couldn't stop reading it. Thank you for sharing you and your thoughts with others. Thank you.

Finaly found your website.."Embraced by the Light" was one of the most inspiraional messages I have read, and I am a teacher!!I am currently working on my Doctorate and have welcomed your thoughts and prayers, I have also ordered books for my family and friends...again Thank You, for sharing your personal experiences, that we as lay people can understand and relate, we know were here, like to know why...my heritage, cherokee/apache/english, I really understand and appreciate you as a messenger...Ruthlee

Hello, My name is Lakisha and I trying to keep my apartment and my three children. My gas and lights are off and soon I'll be receiving a eviction notice for not having my gas and lights on thats one of the requirements for me to stay in my apartment. I have a job but im juggling bills and me and my children have to eat so a bill goes unpaid. I would like to know if there are funds or someone who can help me.

I am praying you will have another book out soon! I was deeply moved by your books. They were given to me last November when my fiance passed away. Without your books, I don't know how I would have made it through his death. Eric was only 22 when he passed. I believe the copies of your books were meant to find their way into my arms. I have a better understanding of life now, and I now know that my fiance is at peace with God, and I know he is happy. Thank you so, so much... you have really inspired me and have helped me through the biggest challenge of my life! Thank you again. ... Marisa, 21

Dear Betty, As I write this it seems no earthly words could express the fullness in my heart - the gratitude and joy - but I'll try to find some to express just a glimmering of what has begun in me. I've been blessed, it seems, in ways not known or understood by me; so many questions have swamped my soul, but now by faith, I see! You wouldn't think a little book could hold such sweet surprise; and yet it seems the Lord can use the small things to open eyes. And when by faith we reach for light with open, honest heart; the miracles begin anew for us if we but do our part. The mustard seed is tiny too, yet gigantic in intent; so we should open up our hearts to the small things, heaven-sent. Love in Christ, Ken

Betty If we are to learn from near death experiences and they are happenstance, then why do people say - God needs them back and where are they taken and why are they taken Your book settles alot of questions about death and dying But how much learned Love is needed Your book just doesn't answer the question of why children are taken and just how much sorrow must we suffer even if we have already felt the joy and are content with just that and want no more

Your work is worderful. Thanks for everything.

When i read this book i fell in love. I cried and i encouraged my friends to read it. The book was handed down from my parents boss and then to me. I love the book and everytime i need encouragement i re-read the book again.

I happened upon this site while following the links from another site. Keep up the excellent work.

Embraced by the Ligt is a wonderful source to read when ever I begin to slip back into a comfort zone in this world. I read it to my family members they have no choice. They regard me as "oh mom, so spiritual and stuff". But, when there is a crisis or there friends need encouragement it's to me that they come. I'm thankful that God uses me in this way. If I'm in the spirit I'm not in the flesh and that's good for me. Thank you Ms. Eadie, for sharing, caring and coming back to teach so many you'll never know on this earth. Someday in Heaven we will meet. Please pray for my family member with cancer. Surgery is set for May 1st. Thank you in advance.

Thank you Betty!! Your book Embraced by the Light opened my eyes to God and started me on my journey to a closer relationship to my Lord. I have always been a church-going Bible-reading Christian and I thought I was doing it all right. After I read your book, I realized what I needed was a RELATIONSHIP with God and not just blindly try to follow the rules. Since I accepted Jesus into my heart again I feel so alive! I am released from all my own fears and worries and it feels so wonderful! I crave reading and learning about the Lord every day because of you and your beautiful spirit evidenced in your book. Thank you so much and I thank God for allowing you to return to earth to be a minister for so many of us who were lost. I find myself looking at other people and, instead of judging them, I find myself loving their spirit no matter who they are on the outside. I feel so much more patient with others and accepting of differences. Your book had alot to do with that. Thank you again. You are a very special person. May our Blessed God be with you always!! Love, Judy

Dear God and all kind loving people, I ask for your prayers and affirmations to heal all the hearts in my community. Let the anger and violence end, and please I ask for your healing touch of lovingkindness to wash away pain and madness from our minds and bodies. I embrace you all, thank you for your smiles and blessings, Morgan.

PLEASE remove the article about Charles Camp and his near death experience. It is absolutely innacurate. He was not an atheist, he never discussed religion, he never was a radio talk person, he never had a near death experience, he was not Berkeley's famous athiest. He was a reknown scientist, and this article is damaging to his reputation as a scholar. I am his daughter, and Joanna Camp was married to him for two years, when he was 80 years old. I would appreciate you removing the story immediately from the "Ripple Effect" Thank you.

Hello Betty, I just finished listening to the audio tapes from "The Awakening Heart". I try to listen to anything that will keep reminding me of my connection to God and my spiritual nature. I really enjoyed them and found much in them to reflect upon. The one thing that strikes me about your experience is the fact that you state that "only through Jesus does one enter the gates of Heaven." The entire body of near-death literature seems to indicate otherwise, and you yourself seem to say elswhere in your writings that it doesn't matter if you beleive in Jesus or not, that God is love and that is the essential fact. I have often wrestled with this notion, and as another Easter approaches, I wonder if you could clarify your beliefs on this for me. I know you are clear in your own heart. I have no doubt about that and I have felt a connection with NDEers for a long time. Your sincerity comes through quite plainly in your voice, as does your unshakable faith. So if you do manage a moment, I would appreciate your comments on this. And Betty.... don't ever quit. Glenn Despres

Has anyone told you, you look like an angel. The moment I saw your photograph on your webpage, I said to myself---she looks like an angel, this was before I read about you. This is the work of the holy spirit, he leads us to all truth. You are a miracle.

Having surgery for a hysterectomy in 1986,aged 29 years of age, I woke up half way through the surgery. Having heard the voice of my doctor saying" she looks good, let's stitch her up now" The next comment I heard, was" oh oh,she's coming out of it, quickly give her----------. At that moment, I saw my feet hanging out of the bed, lying flat, I saw a white sheet. Wondering what was happening, I remember looking under the bed, to see the sheet flap (as if being blown by the wind) but no bed, nothing. At that moment, I started to move forward. Feet first. I started to accelerate. It was as though I was moving through a star system, only it was faster than anything I have ever experienced. I saw my husband working at his desk flash past me on the left hand side of my body. Just like a picture and then I saw my mother in law hanging out the washing and my two oldest children riding their bikes around the clothes line. I then went even faster. The stars passed by me like the speed of what I would imagine, light would be. I then arrived in a void. It was completely black. I felt there was an edge to where I was. I sensed there were others near me. Animals and humans. It was echoey and I saw nothing but black and I felt frightened. I remember yelling out as loud as I could, "Please I don't want to die. I have to say goodbye to my baby and my other children. Please don't let me die". At that moment the next I remember was lying in a hospital bed with drips etc. My mother told me I was yelling out, Please, don't let me die, over and over. This was 3 days later. I spoke to my doctor 5 days later, after I had broken down after sharing my emotions. He told me that I did wake up during surgery, and I had a massive asthma attack. I had not been given anything hallucinogenic and that something had happened and I was one of many. He could not help me understand why I did not see the white light every other person he had spoken to, had seen. I have come to terms with this now, and I believe I only went to the lower plane of dying. I am a Christian and always have been, but this only added to my confusion at the time but I will never stop believing in God. I have also had 2 vivid dreams which interlinked with which I met Jesus and God showed me things that are not of this earth. My name is Sharon Wood, and my e-mail is shoaney@hotmail.com living in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia.

I know you probably won't be able to respond. But if you could please help me I would be grateful. Just received your book. My 27 yr.old committed suicide 6 wks. ago. Your book scared me -what happens to him? Also, I prayed and prayed for him. You state our prayers are answered. I did not pray for his death. Could you give me some insight. Thanks Lucy

Your books have helped me to see all people in a different light. I also learned that we have so many religions because there are so many different people that understand different religions. They are all good Thanks for all your inspiration.

Dear Betty: I don't know if I ever thanked you. Lately I am wondering about things. Things like you mentioned to me one time. First of all I want to thank you for coming to Chapleau for the Women's Weekend Retreat. I must tell you it has certainly changed my life. I didn't really have trust. I always had a fear of the unknown and feeling the burden. I know I have alot to learn yet. I haven't given up and I don't think I want to either. There is so much to learn and put into practice. Thank you for your generousity. I really enjoyed our time together when I met you. I find myself less picking up the phone to call you. I try not to bug you. I don't really know what to say at times. I know you have given me alot. I really appreciate your love and support and allowing me to grieve. I thank you so much. I just felt I needed to thank you. The thing I wonder about is when you told me about being close to the Creator. Being close to the veil. I try to understand it sometimes. I know in my heart I find it not such a burden anymore. I know in my heart I want to be close to the Creator. So I don't know at times if I am doing what I am suppose to be doing for God. Sometimes I do need reassurance. I suppose I need to keep on working with the trust. Right now I feel another shift is happening. I pray to God it is a good shift. I almost could see it at times and other times I just don't know. I pray I am able to get back on track. I still miss my first teacher. He's taught me so much about the Creator. I really miss that feeling. It seems I became lost and kind of wandered around. I really miss him. It is because I felt really special and felt the "feeling" of God's presence. I felt so protected, felt safe, felt I belonged, felt so loved, and felt I mattered. I hope you are doing well. Thank you again. with love, Peggy

The first time I read your book "Embraced by the Light" I did not get alot from it but did loan it to friends which have continued loaning it out. The second time I read it I got so much more. I am also reading your other books as well.

Hi Betty, Just ordered 4 copies of "Embraced" to hand out to friends. I have already worn one copy out by reading it over & over and loaning it to friends I also received & have really enjoyed your "10 year anniversery" video. Always enjoy your web site. Keep up the great work!!!! Lets all keep Loving & pray for peace.

Nice website.

Hi, Betty, just emailing to remind you again of all the super things you do for many people. Thank you.--Blaine

Betty, ((( Hugs ))). I read your EMBRACED BY THE LIGHT when it first came out. Now, I just finished reading THE AWAKENING HEART and loved how it was written. The effects of EMBRACED on your life and others. And the way the Ripple effects work. I am also very happy to know I am not alone in believing that there is more to God....not to depend on the Bible or Religion alone. People can be loving and spiritual without going to church. Because God Is love, and loving others if what he wants. I like what came out about this issue between your brother-in-law in THE AWAKENING HEART. I myself lived a sheltered life. Lived at home and took care of my Mom in her later years. I was also a big genealogist and spent many years helping others do their Family History (French Canadian). I planned a trip to Quebec to meet all my cousins who share the same name as I do...and it went great. But when I returned I was to find my Mother in the Hospital and 16 days later, she left to join our ancestors in the spiritworld. This journey was to be the beginning of a whole new journey for me. I was alone, although I had my Internet friends. For 6 months. The house had to sell, because my Mother left no Will. Since 1999 I had met many friends on the Internet and we connected. But it wasn't just any connection. I could feel their souls and spirits. During this time alone in the old house that I grew up in, I experienced many things. I had a spiritual awakening. I had a friend in one chat room and she entered my body and said she made my gift stronger. That night I met up with a female friend and we actually met in some other plane of existance. I saw her bathing in a stream and then she walked towards me and we made love. We both floated and for the next few months we explored each of spirits and where it would lead us. I found that there were many I could sense out. I found myself attracted to them, and pulled to them. And many times I could feel what and where they had their pain, by feeling it myself. I don't call myself psychic, but I have helped many people with their lives, and touched spiritually as soul mate friend. I have had miraculous things happen to me since my awakening. I woke up that day when it began and my feet felt like they had been washed, so brand new and tiredless. One day I wanted alittle money after spending it all on bills, just alittle spending money and a call knocked me off the computer....it was our Vet calling to say we had $8 in our account owed to us. Our dog had died 2 years earlier. I have had many dreams where relatives had visited me and woke up very happy. Some of my friends online said I am an Angel, because they saw me in the middle of the night at their bed side, and some have seen a bright light after talking to me, and said they believe it to be me who they saw as being of the light. There is so much to learn, so much to explore. Thank you for sharing your story with us. Love & Light to you my friend. ~Bud~

Hi Betty, Where do I begin... One month ago tomorrow I watched on as my mother passed away having suffered greatly from breast cancer. She was a woman of faith and even in her most painful and acute suffering she was dignified and glowing. She was surrounded by light that I beleive was devine. BEAUTIFUL! As I watched her in her last moments on earth, I had read your book "embraced" for the third time. Every day that I watched her slipping away, your words gave me joy in visuallizing her passage. I remember staring at her silent face and imagining her in the same rose field that you were in and how she might one day know what it is to "BE A ROSE". Though I cry for her now as her child still pining for her, I know she is standing with her father in heaven and feeling every bit of his unconditional love. I hang on your every word as though you are in my room with me holding my hand through the sorrow of my mothers absence. Thank you for reaching out to me when I didn't know what to do. I will continue to read your books and reread your books so that I might always think of my mother in that rose bed swaying to the melody of glory.

Dear Betty, I discovered your first book, "Embraced by the Light" back in 1996. My boss at the time was giving copies of your book away as christmas gifts to her friends and acquiantances. I inquired about it and eventually borrowed a copy from my dad who just happened to have it. I was immediately touched by your book in a very personal way. Even though I've never lost a brother or sister or parent,(my mother was just diagnosed with breast cancer) I have lost three uncles, and two grandfathers in my lifetime. Your book does bring me comfort in knowing they are fullfilled in their missions on earth and happy to be home. But I felt a very personal connection with the knowledge that you share in your book as if God wanted me to know his plan for us. I also read "The Awakening Heart...." I have shared my books with several people. I usually buy them and give them away in order to spread the message. But I never tire of reading your books again and again. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. As a 32 year old gay man, I've often struggled with my identity and with God's purpose for me. I am still searching for answers, but my faith in Christ is neverending. Thanks to you, I now Know that God has a plan for me! Sincerely, Albert Gomez

THANK YOU FOR "EMBRACED BY THE LIGHT"! A FRIEND GAVE ME THE BOOK TO READ AND I HAVE NEVER FELT SO TOUCHED BY WORDS. I LOST A BROTHER AT A VERY YOUNG AGE , AS WELL AS 2 CLOSE FRIENDS ALL IN THE MONTH OF MARCH AND I THANK YOU FOR THE MESSAGE I RECIEVED FROM YOUR BOOK.. THANK GOD , THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU GAVE ME WHICH IS PEACE OF MIND..

Betty, After the death of my son's best friend our family was devastated. My friend gave me your book Embraced By The Light. I can't tell you what a blessing that book was to me. It has answered so many questions and shown me so many things. It all make sperfect sense to me now. Thank you for sharing this story with all of us. Perhaps this is your MISSION. Bringing Peace and Understanding to others in need. God bless you Betty. Sincerely, Joan Curry Grove City, Ohio

Betty,I read Embraced By The Light about 10 years ago after I described a personal experience to a friend and she gave me the book. My experience led me to spend many hours trying to figure out why I had been saved and what it was I was meant to do. As I read the book I had to stop and put down because periodically because it was too close to what had happened to me that it made me feel somewhat uneasy. But I did finnish it and although I did not really find any answers I did come to the realization that I simply neede to relax and the answers would be revealed to me. Thank you for your book and may God continue to Bless and keep you safe in His love.

Betty, Found your website yesterday. I again passed along your book, "Embraced by the Light" to my neighbor and friend next door. His wife died last Wed. night suddenly at home in her sleep. She had not been ill. I have given many copies of this wonderful book over the years. Thank you. You have been an inspiration to so many! I have read your books over and over; but I get the most from "Embraced...". I know my friend is with the Savior, and just having a wonderful new life! God Bless You!
