Wave of Future Illness

In the summer of 2004, I was sitting and reading in my apartment when all of a sudden I had this overwhelming feeling that something was wrong with my 14 year old daughter. My daughter was living with her father at the time for a period of about 6 months. She stayed with him for 1 year and she lives with me now.
Anyway, I began to say the words, "my daughter's going to die, my daughter's going to die," and I was hyperventilating with this sudden fear. For about a minute I felt and said that my daughter was going to die until I began breathing normally, feeling much relieved while repeating the words, "she's ok, she's ok. I just as quickly forgot about the incident as if I was in a trance.
About 2 months later, I got a phone call from my daughter’s father telling me that she had stopped breathing. Upon arriving at the hospital, I was told she indeed had stopped breathing and was non-responsive when she got there. I leaned into my daughter's ear a whispered her name upon which she regained consciousness, (she was on life support) and to this day the doctors don't know what her illness was about. It seemed as if I got a wave of the future event, horrible as it was. I’ve had similar things happen to me but none as scary as this. I hope no one experiences anything like this concerning their loved ones. Lea Jessica
