‘I Saw My Mom’: Woman’s Near-Death Experience Reveals Glimpse of Heaven

Death remains one of humanity's greatest mysteries, yet Charlotte Holmes, a 68-year-old woman from Wichita, claimed to have experienced an extraordinary journey that reinforced her belief in the afterlife. In 2019, Holmes was hospitalized due to a sudden spike in blood pressure. Her condition deteriorated rapidly, and she was declared clinically dead for 11 minutes—nearly double the usual five minutes used to determine death.During this time, Holmes reported an out-of-body experience, saying, “I was above my body. I could see them doing chest compressions. I could see them, all the nurses around. I could smell the most beautiful flowers I’ve ever smelled. And then I heard music.” She described this experience as a trip to “Heaven,” where she encountered angels and deceased family members, and even glimpsed “Hell.”“When I opened my eyes, I knew where I was. I knew I was in Heaven,” she stated confidently. Her vivid description of Heaven included an overwhelming sense of “pure joy” and the beauty of nature. “I could see the trees, I could see the grass. And everything was swaying with the music because everything in Heaven worships God. It’s a million times, a million times above what we can even think of,” Holmes added.Check Out the VideoHolmes also shared her reunion with younger, healthier versions of her deceased family members and saints from history, stating, “I saw my mom. I saw my dad. I saw my sister. I saw family members standing behind me. I saw saints of old. They didn’t look old. They didn’t look sick. None of them wore glasses.”However, her experience took a darker turn when God reportedly showed her “the edge of Hell.” “I looked down and the smell — rotten flesh — that’s what it smelled like. And screams. After seeing the beauty of Heaven, the contrast of seeing Hell is almost unbearable,” she recalled. This part of her journey served as a vital lesson, with Holmes sharing, “He says, ‘I show you this to tell you if some of them do not change their ways, this is where they shall reside.’ I heard my Father say, ‘You have time to go back and share.’”Upon awakening in her hospital bed, Holmes felt compelled to share her story with others. “People need hope. They want to know that there really is something out there. They want to know that everything’s okay. It’s more real than you can imagine. I can look you square in the eye and tell you for sure, ‘Heaven is real,’” she stated.Holmes’ husband, Danny, was by her side during her recovery. He recalled a moment when Charlotte, still unconscious, spoke of flowers, prompting him to realize she was not in this world. “Well, I looked around, and I knew there were no flowers in that room. That’s when I knew she was not in this world,” Danny told The 700 Club.Charlotte Holmes continued to share her insights about Heaven and the afterlife until her passing on November 28, 2023, at the age of 72.
