What a clever approach to the contest! You meet the requirements splendidly with the appropriate opening line. I really like the way you turned this into a faith based lesson of hope. All the best in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.

It was a story I wanted to tell some ago and the prompt gave me the perfect opportunity.
Thank you for your kind comments and good wishes.
Hugs,

Comment from MJ McIntire
I cannot imagine how terrifying this must have been. Hearing the words that you were dying and could not shout to anybody.
What a sense of peace you must have to know He was right there and could hear you.

Comment from Unspoken94
Oh, this story is way too short! There is much more to this story
than your recall. Expand it and get the dialogue of the attending
medical workers. Bring your family and friends into this story and
how they felt and what they said. What about your church and your
minister? What were they all feeling before you woke up? Oh, Brigitte,
to heck with the contest. Contests often keep a story from being
great. This is a great story. -Bill

To receive a six star rating from you, the master of the craft, is an honor. Thank you for reading and suggesting that I expand it. That is worthy of consideration and I will try. Many thanks to an awesome and supportive author.
Blessings,
Brigitte
Comment from Spitfire
What a terrifying experience. I can imagine hearing someone predict your death and not being able to contradict. My guess is you traveled to the other side and did contact the Divine. He will help those that ask. I loved your final line.

That day was a faith affirming day. I can only write from personal experiences so when I saw the prompt, I knew the story had to be told. Thank you for reading and reviewing so kindly.

Comment from Mustang Patty
Hi, Brigitte;
Yes, it obviously wasn't your time, and He allowed your spirit to stay on earth. He is wonderful like that. Thank you for sharing this story,

Thank you Patty for being a faithful reader. ( I enjoyed my coffee today after your poetic prompt.)
Have a great night,

Now that is a story to tell someone who does not believe in God. If I was on the operating table, and I have been there but never woke up, and heard the doctor say we are losing him, I probably would give up. Maybe, I should not put too much confidence in doctors.

I do believe that God guided their hands after my silent scream. Either that or hell was full and God wasn't ready for a sassy one like me. I am just glad that I am still around and have more time write, read, and review. This story should make believers out of many.
Blessings faithful friend,
Brigitte

Comment from Commando
Oh, my God! Your presentation is AWESOME, Brigitte. Remember my telling you; "You are made of strong chain?" You, betcha! Hmmm! I am aware of your faith in God, "It could move a mountain with a spoon." Your author's note is commendable, you wrote; "Do you hear that everyone?" Oh, yes! I hear you, my dear friend. Gee-whiz! Almost forgot to say; "Your writing is like a magnet. It pulls me in, and don't let go until I have reached the end." Toot, toot! Best wishes and God bless.

Again, you hypnotize me with this glowing review as your opinion matters so much to me. You have pulled my heartstrings and I whisper ," Thank you for giving me Bill to whom I confide feelings that have been hiding inside." Another time, another place, I think we would have been kindred spirits ,and maybe more. I really don't want you to use all your sixes on my entries, I just want to read them, internalize them, and never forget that I am sincere, honest, and I hold you dear.
Hugs embracing, kisses galore, I doubt if you could stand anymore!
Love,
Brigitte

You did a great job with the contest prompt. I really like the idea of what you wrote. You are right. God heard you & brought you back. Your words flow well & fit the prompt perfectly as does your picture. Best wishes. Jan

Thank you for reading and reviewing, Jan. This was an unbelievable moment in time and I decided to share when I saw the prompt. The contest is secondary, the sharing came out of love and faith.
