I was completely frightened, and I had no chance to connect the figure with anything I had done. The moment it began to move toward me, I cringed in half-terror and at the same time felt I had to see what it was. Almost immediately I felt hands placed over my eyes so I could not see. I kept putting the hands away in spite of my fear until finally the ghostlike form was beside the bed, not a foot away from me. Then someone took hold of my upper arms, gently, and I moved up out of the bed. With this, I calmed down, evidently because I felt that whatever it was, it was friendly. I did not struggle or resist. Immediately, there was a quick sense of movement and we (I then felt there were two of them, one on each side) were suddenly over a small room, as if we were looking down on it from the ceiling. In the room below were four women. I looked at the two beings on each side of me. One was a blond male, the other dark-haired, almost oriental. Both seemed to be quite young, in their early twenties. They were smiling at me. I spoke to them and said they would have to excuse my attitudes as I was uncertain of what I was doing. Then I floated down to the only empty chair and sat down in it. A tall large woman in a dark suit sat opposite me. A woman in what looked like an ankle-length white robe sat next to me. The other two were indistinct. A woman's voice asked if I would remember that I had been there, and I assured her that I certainly would. Another woman said something about cancer, but that is all I could get. Then one of the women (the one in the dark suit) came over and swung over the side of my chair, and draped herself right on top of me! I did not feel her weight, but for some reason, she got up suddenly. There was laughter, but my mind was on other things. Evidently, the contact with the woman who sat on top of me had altered things. Just at that moment, I heard a male voice said, "I think he's been away long enough; we'd better take him back." I was torn between going and staying, but did not argue. Almost instantly, I was back lying in my bed and that was it —except that my wife had been awake during the entire time. She stated that I alternately gasped, made moaning and -whimpering noises, and then seemed to do little or no breathing at all. Other than that, she had not seen or heard anything, except that our cat asleep in the room had awakened and had been extremely nervous. My wife was quite upset and worried. I'm sure 1 would have been too, if I had gone through the same with her. The "meeting" certainly deserved checking, so I phoned R.G. and discovered several things. First, there were four women at the stance. At my request, they were gathered together at the same apartment (very small living room)
