July 21, 2012- Angels Visited Me ?

July 21, 2012 was the day  that I almost died. I don’t believe I have ever been that close to death . I came close to committing suicide in 2001 but I had not taken any physical action before God intervened. A year ago was different, I didn’t want to die. God intervened that day in an amazing way and after HE saved me I wondered why he chose to save me but not Alexis. I quickly put that out of my mind because it is a question that won’t be answered on this side of heaven and I am okay with that. I will tell you the story because it does glorify God and HIS omnipotence. 
July 21, 2012 was a very busy Saturday at work. There were three of us working that day and we barely had time to breathe much less eat ( to give you an idea of that time period, we sold 19 homes in the month of July last year : I have never experienced that before or since ). Finally in the afternoon of that day things slowed down so Jeff and Sophia ran to grab a sandwich which left me alone in the model. I remembered I had some rosemary flank steak in the refrigerator so I went to get a piece of it and headed back to my office.
At this same time unbeknownst to me a young family from Celina were driving north on Independence. They came to town to bring their saxophone to be repaired. Out of the blue the father said “ Hey let’s go look at this model over here” He quickly turned left on to Sumac and parked in front of our model.
As I was about to take a bite of my steak I heard the door chime so I went to greet the family. They told me they just wanted to run through the house, that they lived in Celina and were not going to move but “just decided “ to stop here. I told them to look around then went back to my office and took a bite of the steak. As I swallowed, or attempted to, I knew something was wrong. I couldn't swallow all the way. I tried to cough but couldn't and grabbed my water to take a drink but when I did the water just came back out of my mouth. I was choking . Running to the kitchen I tried to dislodge the food but couldn't. My plan was to go to the bathroom but by this point I knew I didn’t have time, I needed help. I couldn't breathe and then I tried to scream but no sound came out. Nothing , I was terrified . At this point I began to panic and started to stomp my heels on the wood floors hoping the family could hear me. They were upstairs so I ran to the stairs trying to go up but collapsed on the second stair. I then tried to crawl up but I was so frantic that I wasn’t making any progress . I really thought I was going to die at this point BUT then I heard the man say in a calm voice that he was coming to help me. He then performed the Heimlich and dislodged the food . I immediately began to cry uncontrollably and tried to stand but felt dizzy . They told me to sit and they cleaned up the mess I made. It was the one of the scariest experiences I've ever had. Choking, not able to breathe, not able to speak. The wife then looked at me and said I was really lucky because her husband , the man who saved me, was a first responder. The husband then said as he was driving on Independence he just felt prompted to stop at the Highland model, when they left that morning they had no intention to look at new homes they weren’t even in the market . But all of the sudden he “just decided” to stop. We were all blown away by the timing. No one else was there or came in during my close call. It was such an emotional experience and I see how God worked through them to save me. I still get chills as I think about it. Some of our home buyers walked in as I was sitting on the stairs crying , they were very concerned because they could tell I was so upset and they all knew that I had just lost Alexis. I assured them I was okay but as I was talking with them I noticed the family was gone, they left as fast and quietly as they came. I didn’t even get a name. Sometimes I wonder if it was a family of angels sent to protect me . But either way when it is my time and I do get to Heaven I will thank him and his family as well as the lady from the benefits office of Garland I SD. Both these people saved my life. All I know is God isn’t done with me yet and HE still has a purpose for my life or I wouldn’t be here. Thank you Jesus : ))
