I was dead for 2 minutes and I didn't want to leave — what I saw on the other side was beyond belief
Nicole Meeuws was lifeless on a hospital bed, officially pronounced dead for two minutes, when she supposedly felt 'pulled' from her body and entered a tunnel of light where she was met by 'blue-skinned' beings, she told NeedToKnow.
The 49-year-old artist was in the hospital after losing her baby and was rushed into emergency surgery, but, due to complications, she started to go in and out of consciousness.
'I found myself passing through a tunnel of blue and white light, not a beam, but a corridor that felt alive,' she said.
Meeuws, who is from Greece, said that the light had a temperature and tone — 'almost like music made of water' — and she entered a glowing space with 'luminous' colors such as silver, soft violets and deep radiant blues.
'It didn't feel frightening; it felt like I was being called home,' she said.
'The chamber was vast, larger than any earthly structure, and everything pulsed gently like a heartbeat,' she added. 'And then I saw them.'
Meeuws revealed that she was greeted by 'blue-skinned' beings with human faces, similar to the characters in 'Avatar.'
'Two towering beings seated on marble-like thrones, shimmering with energy. Their eyes were large and indigo, filled with kindness and recognition,' she said. 'They looked human, but had gentle gills on their cheeks. I remember seeing their fish-like tails, rather than legs, covered in scales.'
'They were both male and female intertwined and didn't speak in words – but I understood everything they had to tell me,' Meeuws added.
She said she didn't understand their language, but the Avatar-like figures allegedly made her feel at home and telepathically communicated with her that life is actually an illusion and we start to live when we die.
Meeuws also said they told her that she wasn't meant to have children and rather she was given the gift to teach people about 'the other side.'
'I felt more known than I had ever felt in my life; I didn't want to leave,' she noted. 'I understood this place, this feeling, and I truly believe it was the original home from which we all come from.'
'I learned that death is not an end, it's a return to our actual lives,' Meeuws added.
After the minutes she was pronounced dead, Meeuws was 'zapped' back into her body, and when her husband, Christos, 65, tried to speak to her, she communicated in a high-pitched tone in an 'unfamiliar' language.
'It sounded like dolphin clicks. It continued for minutes, which left everyone around us stunned. But I couldn't stop it – it was coming through me, not from me,' Meeuws said.
'My senses were heightened and I could hear emotion in people's voices as color. I returned completely different; almost reborn,' she added.
Meeuws hasn't had any near-death experiences since the incident, but she said she has visions of the blue-skinned figures often. She believes they are non-alien creatures from the Apkallu interdimensional tribe, also referred to as Demigods, that allegedly have given civilization to mankind.
According to Meeuws, the mission given to her by these blue beings is to spread the message that 'love is stronger than death.'
'Love will always win; it's where we came from. We're all one big family, regardless of boundaries, cultures, religion and politics. Everything that exists came from the same spark,' she said. 'The more we hold onto fear, hate and lies, the easier it is to control humanity.'
'To create heaven on Earth, we must spend each day spreading love. I'm no longer afraid of death because I know what's waiting for me on the other side,' she noted. 'It was a beginning, not an end.'

Kostas Tsimikas reveals new tattoo dedicated to Diogo Jota after Liverpool forward's tragic death
Liverpool defender Kostas Tsimikas has chosen to get a new tattoo in honor of former teammate Diogo Jota. The Greek international was close friends with Jota, who tragically died in a car crash on July 3, along with his brother Andre Silva. Tsimikas, like all the Liverpool players, was deeply impacted by the news and chose to honor the 28-year-old with a permanent display. Tsimikas had the words 'wish you were here' tattooed on his left hand, along with Jota's No. 20. The defender did not publicly announce the new addition to his tattoo collection, but Puerto Ink, a tattoo parlor in Athens, shared an update on Instagram.

This one's forever,' it said in a post. 'From teammates to brothers. From Greece to England. From dreams to Anfield. 'They rose together. They laughed, fought, worked, and lived the moments most can only dream of. Until fate decided to stop one of them far too soon. 'This tattoo is not just a tribute. It's a piece of love, pain, memory — carved in silence, worn with pride. 'Rest easy, Jota. You'll never walk alone. Thank you for trusting us with something so sacred. We are honored.' Tsimikas shared a heartbreaking tribute to Jota after his death earlier this month. 'Oh he wears the number 20 and His name is Diogo,' the left-back wrote on Instagram. 'We've moved to the club the same period. We were the new boys in the city. We've shared and celebrated some of our best moments of our careers together. Before one of our last ones you've said to me 'You cross, I score' and that's what happened. We laughed and we talked about lots. 'You were a special player,a special guy,a true legend Diogo. You'll always be remembered and always be loved. 'My heart and my prayers are with your Rute, your boys, your little girl, your family and everyone who loved and waited for you both to go home. You and your brother André will be missed forever.' On Tuesday, Jota's widow, Rute Cardoso, posted for the first time on social media since Jota's passing and shared a picture of the couple a month to the day since their wedding. Tragically, they were married for just 11 days before Jota and his brother died. '1 month of our 'until death do us part'. Forever, Your white girl,' she wrote in an emotional post. Meanwhile, another mural has sprung up near Anfield in honor of the striker and his brother, with local artist Paul Curtis painting the display on Lyon Road.

I worked the night shift and spent it chatting with a guy in the UK. He flew to the US to meet me, and we've been together for 27 years.
Back in 1997, I was working the night shift when I met a man online who lived in the UK. We started chatting every night for hours, and after six months, he flew to the US to meet me. After dating for three months, we got engaged, and we've been together ever since. In 1997, I met my husband thanks to an obnoxious coworker. I was a 27-year-old data entry clerk at the California Department of Food and Agriculture. My coworkers were other recent graduates making ends meet. We were friends — all of us except one. This particular coworker, as she liked to remind us, came from a wealthy family. She didn't talk to us often — that is, except when she felt like bragging, as she did the day she trounced into the office to announce her brother had won a radio. My coworkers and I decided we, too, would win something. And our prize would be cool because it would be won online. (Remember, in 1997, the internet was a shiny new toy.) Unfortunately, I was the only one with a computer, as very few people had personal computers then. So, every night, I entered all of us into a plethora of competitions. I got in the habit and kept at it even after I got a much better-paying job, working the night shift at a publishing plant. In the process, I discovered a site that paid virtual coins for clicking on other webpages. One of the sites it paid me to visit was American Singles, a simple and slightly boring bulletin board. As I was about to log out, I met a 26-year-old guy calling himself Dionysus. We immediately hit it off, and I stayed logged on. We chatted every night for 6 months He was finishing his degree, and though he was in the UK, because I was working the night shift, it was basically like we were in the same time zone. We talked about everything, for about six hours each night for six months. I told him things I hadn't shared with anyone else. In fact, I got so wrapped up in talking to him that I completely forgot to keep entering contests. I chatted with abandon, completely unaware that he was paying for the internet by the minute. When his bill came, he decided it would be cheaper to fly to the US to meet me in California. He asked if that would be OK, and I said yes. Then, he came to the US to visit me I was both anxious and excited, and those co-workers, with whom I was still friends, didn't help. They asked how I knew the man I was talking to wasn't a 60-year-old grandmother. I didn't; I'd only learned three months into chatting that his real name was Adrian. His timing was also unfortunate. At the time, there was a story all over the news about a stalker using the internet to prey on a young girl. So, when I told my mom a guy I met online was coming, she panicked. "He's an ax murderer, I'm driving down," she said. I begged her not to come, but our conversation did nothing to alleviate the apprehension that had been building. A stranger from another country would soon be staying in my apartment. Was this a good idea? It was a bit awkward at first, but we got through it When we finally met, we discovered a few cultural differences. Though English people generally don't tend to have a flair for the dramatic, picking up stakes and coming to a new country just to meet someone you've been chatting with online is pretty bold. So, Adrian tried to compensate during our first visit by making his surroundings a bit more English. On his first night in the US, we had pizza. I opened the box and took a slice. He sat staring at it. "Do you have a knife and fork?" he inquired. I assured him I did. "Can I have them?" I gaped, and watched with amusement as he attempted to eat a pizza with utensils. After a while, he gave up and ate with his hands. (When we went to the UK to meet his family, I understood. You can't eat British pizza any other way.) Since pizza was not an unalloyed success, I decided to take him to Starbucks, thinking, who doesn't know about Starbucks? It turned out, the British. (The chain's first store opened in London in 1998, and Adrian had never been to one before. He asked me if it was named after Battlestar Galactica.) Welcome to America. But we persevered and, over time, learned one another's routines, insecurities, and quirks. When it got serious, I took him to meet my mom. She really liked him — possibly because he passed the test of not hacking me to death. We dated for about three months after he came to the US. During that time, we toured San Francisco and camped on the beach in Monterey. Then, he asked me to go to the UK for two weeks to meet his family. His family was incredibly welcoming, and one of his friends took a week out of his life to show me their corner of England. I loved it, and I loved his family. When we got back to my apartment in Davis, we settled down to watch a documentary about mummification. As the narrator described the process, Adrian asked me to marry him. I said yes, and we eloped in 1999. It's been 27 years since we met in person. We are now 54 and 53 years old, and of course, we are still chatting.

Mama June Shannon admitted to hospital
Mama June Shannon was admitted to hospital, just hours after a psychic warned her about health issues. The 45-year-old reality TV star met with a psychic during her daughter Jessica Shannon's bachelorette party, who told her she was carrying a lot of stress and "may have a heart attack" because of it. Hours later she found herself in severe pain and her husband Justin Stroud insisted she go to hospital because of the psychic's warnings. In scenes from Mama June: Family Crisis, she can be heard saying: 'It is way worse than it has ever been.' Doctors in the emergency room "determined that ovarian cysts are causing her severe pain" and June is now 'considering her treatment options'. June has suffered a number of health issues in recent years, revealing last month that along with having to undergo a total hysterectomy, she had other ongoing ailments. She told 'I am still dealing with the medical issues, and I don't want to go public with those until we find out where we are and what the treatment is going to be. 'So, the only thing that I've came public with is a hysterectomy, not the other health issues.' June is also sober following her public battle with addiction five years ago. She said: 'I'd say I'm five and a half straight, sober. No cigarettes, no alcohol, no nothing. You know, I don't even think about who that person was.'
