Bright Burning Light Half Oval Object and 2 1/2 hours of lost time Sighting in Texas City, Texas May 1973 500 Lights On Object0: Yes
My friends and I were hanging out in my front yard. It was May of 1973 in Texas City, Texas. I was 11 or 12. It started getting dark. Everyone dispersed after an hour or so. I stayed outside and set quietly on the grass in front of our new house. Directly across the street lived a family, I will call Cark. I could see in their front window. The family was all sitting around the TV. Their family room was brightly lit. Envy welled up in me. I so wanted a normal family life. My step-father was a drunk. There was a lot of dysfunction in my house. I diverted my attention to the sky. It was an unusually cool spring evening with little or no humidity. The sky was bright with what looked like a trillion stars. The pollution was non-existent from the refineries that were close by and the air was light and crisp. I closed my eyes and listened to the sounds of the bugs and distant cars. All of a sudden there was an abrupt silence that fell over the area where I sat. Wh! en I opened my eyes, I noticed something hovering over the Cark’s house. I couldn’t make out a shape, because it was so bright. Later I remember thinking that it had a half oval shape. I remember feeling like I was getting a tan on my face. I couldn’t move and I didn’t even feel like I could blink. I tried to open my mouth to holler at someone in my house, but I couldn’t utter a sound. My mind kept saying that I was not seeing what I thought I saw. The last thing I remember was a feeling of terror.
It seemed like a minute or two had passed and I found myself standing about three feet from where I was originally sitting. The bright object was gone and the Cark’s were back to watching their family show together. The sounds of the late spring night had returned and I felt a chill go across my body. I turned and ran into the house. I went straight to the bathroom to wash my hands. I felt dirty and kind of sticky. When I looked up in to the mirror, I saw my face. It looked like I had been at the beach all day long. It didn’t hurt, but I put aloe vera gel on it anyway. I went in to the kitchen to get a glass of water and noticed that the clock showed the time to be 10:30 p.m. I immediately went in to my room to confirm the time on my alarm clock. My alarm clock said the same thing. "There is no way 2 ½ hours could have past," I thought. It seemed to me to have been no more than five minutes. I walked around the house to tell anybody, but my step-father was passed out, m! y brother and sister were asleep and mom was at work.
Fear overwhelmed me and I ran in to my room, jumped in my bed and put the covers over my head. I thought about it for a couple of days afterwards. I even asked the Cark boy that was my age, if he heard or saw anything. He said that he didn’t. I didn’t think about it again until 1988 when I had an out of body experience hovering over my self and my new baby while we slept in bed. A bright light came in to the room. It was pitch black outside, but it looked like broad daylight in my room. The fans stopped and it there was no sound at all. The next thing I knew, I was back in bed and it was pitch black dark in my room. The fans were blowing and I closed my eyes and went back to sleep.
In 1990 I had a child and needed a C-section. After my surgery and recovery the doctor asked me when I had my fallopian tube and ovary cut out. I told her that I never had that kind of a surgery. She documented the information and had nurses verify. When I told my family, they said that the doctor had probably accidently cut them out during the C-section. I bought the idea. Since then, I have spoken to friends of mine who are doctors and they said that it was highly unlikely that one fallopian tube and ovary would have been cut out on accident by the doctor. I have recently been writing in a journal I started in 2006 and as I came up to the 1970’s, my recollection of the May 1973 event became refreshed in my mind. I did not feel the need to report this until, my 22 year old daughter who I have told the story, told me about a case called Dortery (sp) that occurred in a near by city of Alta Loma, Texas, in the same year of 1973. I don’t know if there is a correlation, but ! I wanted to give all of my truthful recollection and let the professionals make that determination.
