Choosing to Live or Die

Many people are given the choice to live or to die. I don’t think all people are given a choice because some deaths occur very quickly, but I could be wrong. Three stories of people choosing are in Scott’s Choice.

One tells of Danielle, an eighteen-year-old girl who was in a very bad single-car crash. Her spirit appeared to several energy workers who were praying on her behalf. She told each of them, “Don’t pray for me to live; pray for me to die instead. I have found that I have much more work over here than I do on Earth. Besides [this last part said cheerily], I hate to be in pain!” She died a few days later, as she had requested.

Another story features thirty-two-year-old Sally who was hit broadside, careening the car into a telephone pole. Her spirit lifted out of her very damaged body, and she was taken to a meadow, a room where a choir was practicing and finally a council room with a large table. There the Savior asked her what she would like to do: stay or go back. She hemmed and hawed, thought over all her options because it was so peaceful and beautiful there. On his third (and urgent) ask, she thought of her husband and suddenly decided, “I want to be with Walter!” Immediately she was “put back through [her] forehead again, just as at birth, and it hurt, just as at birth.”

The third story of choice is my husband, Scott’s. The alternative things we were doing were actually working when he chose to leave. Someday he will tell me why he chose that. For now, I just know that, like Danielle and Sally, he had a good reason for what he did.
