Cody was driving downtown with friends when he ran a red light without paying attention. Two cars slammed into him from the side, causing him to hit his head on the steering wheel. He died from the injuries and experienced a profound near-death experience.

During the experience, Cody saw a bright light and felt completely free of pain. He was transported through a tunnel where he witnessed flashbacks of his entire life passing before him. He knew with certainty that he was dead. He then found himself standing in a beautiful meadow filled with flowers, with animals running freely around him.

While in the meadow, someone approached him who he recognized as his deceased grandmother. When he asked her where he was, she told him he was in heaven but that he was not ready to die yet. He asked if he would ever follow his dreams, but she said she couldn't tell him before disappearing. As he searched for her, the entire scene began to fade away.

Cody found himself back in the hospital where his mother confirmed he had died. The experience occurred just two months before his account, and it profoundly impacted his awareness, particularly about paying attention while driving.

--- Biblical Summary ---
Biblical elements: The experience contains several elements consistent with biblical accounts including the bright divine light, meeting deceased family members in the afterlife, being in a heavenly realm described as a beautiful meadow, and being told it wasn't his time to die yet. The sense of peace and absence of pain aligns with biblical descriptions of heaven.

Unbiblical elements: None identified. The experience does not contain reincarnation, new age concepts, universal salvation, or other elements that contradict scripture. The grandmother's inability to reveal future information aligns with biblical limitations on prophetic knowledge.
