Thérèse Albanese's life turned upside down on November 21, 1998. That day when she was the victim of a stroke at the age of 35. She is then 5 months pregnant of a little girl.
An accident which took place, far from where she lived at the time, in Metz. “I came to Brittany to visit a friend, here, in Morbihan, in Pluneret,” says the woman who decided to return to where her new life began, in Brittany, by settling in Guénin in 2021.
An angioma in the brain
From this accident, Thérèse doesn't remember anything. Just that she felt bad that day when she woke up. “I had a very bad headache. I was cold and wanted to vomit.”
It was while taking a bath and while she had double-closed the bathroom door that she felt unwell. Fortunately, her friend and her companion managed to break down the door to help her.
Transported to Vannes then transferred to neurosurgery in Nantes, she will have emergency surgery. “It was an angioma that I had in my brain that burst.”
Thérèse gets by but with serious after-effects and in particular left-sided hemiplegia. She returns to her home in Metz but will undergo three long years of rehabilitation and work stoppage (she is an employee at Orange). She is recognized disabled worker. His life will never be the same again.
Now retired, she remains very physically fragile and still has difficulty getting around.
“I understood: my soul had left my body”
But his story didn't end there. Because two years after this accidentIt is ” a flash» which will allow her to relive in some way what she experienced on November 21, 1998.
“It came back to me like that, suddenly. I see myself with my back facing the ceiling. I see someone in a bathtub who wants to get up but can't. I see two people behind the door trying to get in and crying. »
” Got it. It was me. My soul had left my body. I felt so light, so good.”
Thérèse speaks of “inner joy”, of this feeling, “of not wanting to go down again”.
For her, it is not a question of near death experience. “But definitely from an out-of-body experience. When the soul suffers too much, it escapes from the fleshly envelope.”
The spiritual field
This memory will upset Thérèse. Necessarily.
“Religion and its beliefs are not for me. On the other hand, everything that concerns the spiritual world today fascinates me.”
To the point of now leading conferences and dialogues. She created “Conscious Flight» and shares his experience during various meetings. And it covers many diverse and varied subjects on the well-being, emotions, self-knowledge.
She knows: talking about death is not easy in our society.
“I’m not here to convince anyone. But it makes you think. Western society has always made us believe that death is something definitive. But I am convinced that our soul continues its journey . »
At each of the sessions she organizes, however, no one is insensitive. “When we approach the subject, many attitudes change regarding death. We believe it or not, it doesn't matter. This is itthe spiritual field.But if it can bring a feeling of well-being, I think we should not deprive ourselves of it.”
