In 1960, young Audie had a very high temperature from Scarlet Fever and was hospitalized. She was later told she nearly died. During the crisis, she had an out-of-body experience where she floated above her body and discovered she could see through walls. Her mother had bought pears as a special treat since they normally couldn't afford them, but Audie was too sick to eat them.
During her OBE, she saw nurses in their canteen eating her pears while saying how sick she was and that she wouldn't need them. She loved pears and felt angry about this. She then traveled to her home where she saw her parents getting ready to come to the hospital, noting specifically the dress her mother was wearing. She tried to tell them about the pears but they couldn't see or hear her. She could see everywhere, through walls, with complete 360-degree vision. She felt peaceful, curious, and interested in everything happening around her earthly body while enjoying the floating sensation and ability to go wherever she wished. Eventually, she floated directly above her body alone in the room and had to decide whether to return or not. She chose to go back though she doesn't know why. When she told her mother about the experience, her mother was skeptical but had to acknowledge that Audie knew about the dress she wore at home and couldn't explain how. Her mother confirmed the pears were mysteriously missing. However, her mother told her not to tell anyone else as they would think she was mad. The experience changed Audie's perspective, showing her that her parents, particularly her mother, loved her very much, as she had always felt unloved as a child. Nearly fifty years later, she remembers it as clearly as when it happened. --- Biblical Summary --- Biblical elements: The out-of-body experience during life-threatening illness aligns with biblical concepts of the spirit's independence from the body. The ability to see through walls and have supernatural perception reflects spiritual sight. The peaceful feeling and freedom from physical constraints mirror descriptions of spiritual existence. The choice to return suggests divine permission rather than her time to die. The lasting clarity of the memory suggests genuine spiritual experience. Unbiblical elements: The experience lacks explicit spiritual or religious content - no divine beings, light, or heavenly realms typically associated with biblical accounts. The focus on earthly concerns (the pears) rather than spiritual matters is unusual. The mother's instruction to hide the experience suggests lack of understanding of potential spiritual significance.
