I'm not sure if I am using the correct procedure; this is my first time using this message center. Any way my story is short and to the point and I swear to God I'm telling the truth;the whole truth; and nothing but the truth. I am 49 now. When I was 14 - 15 my best friend since kindergarten, (she still is my best friend), was staying overnight for the weekend. We were watching t.v. and munching on some chips. I guess time 'left us' and the next day we woke up 7 (seven) miles from home. My friend wishes to remain unknown; but my story is out. We will call her Beth - (her first name). We woke up seven miles from my house, in Estabrook Pard (Milw. Wis.). Here we are not knowing how we got there, (no drugs involved! we were young), Beth had a triangle burned on her upper arm. I awoke first; I saw a big light, as huge as the sun lift up and disappear. I looked at Beth and she was sleeping or 'something' and I woke her up. We wonder how we got there to this day. We walked all the way back to my house and never spoke about it again until 1991. She told me to not bring this up again; because she said she has been having strange things happen to her since then. So have I been haveing strange things happen to me but I don't hide from it; I try to find explanations. I have been called crazy but this was real and so are the other things that have happened to me. I only seek the truth; no hecklers allowed. Cindie

That's certainly freaky, would have scared me.

You didn't say how your parents reacted when you got back? Did you fall asleep in the main tv room or in a bedroom? Were you in nightclothes or ordinary clothes? What "strange things" have been happening?

More info would be great.

If this was down to sleepwalking then it's very strange that both of you did it together. Does anyone know if there's a precedence for more than one person to sleepwalk like this? I for one am intrigued and would love to hear more

welcome to um cindie
interesting...so you all reported this to media and local police. and what strange things happened after this.

Hi Cindie and welcome to UM:

I am with Bebi and darknight on this one, more information would be helpful. It seems your best friend is having a hard time dealing with this, how has it affected your life? I am extremely interested to know how your parents dealt with this as well.

Thanks

Amy

on one hand I find it fascinating to have been picked out (or is it up?) & on the other disturbing to have not had a choice. Ever been checked out (as in completely) by a dr for any residual effects or changes to your body? {as far as parents are concerned they were ripe old teenagers & had more than enough wherewithall to avoid questioning}

I am very curious as to what sort of strange things have happened to both of you. It was a frightening experience for two young people to go through. Do you remember how you dealt with it immediately afterward?

Hi Cindy:

That is a very interesting and scary story. I am pretty new to this forum myself but I would say that both of you were abducted by aliens or maybe by some gang members who used both of you for a weird initiation ritual. I am very curious to see what more experienced members of this group will say. Nelly from the Block

Interesting story, sounds like an alien abduction. On a different topic does anyone ever speculate it might be the goverment testing some new technology on how to abduct people?

hahaha!

Interesting i agree some more information would be appropriate to learn more of your experience. i can only imagine how that would affect you after it happened.

Amy, Bebi, and darknight,
I really didn't think any one was listening (or reading my story), low and behold I found replies months later. I told my father about this and the pastor at school; the pastor's recomendation was to have me see a therapist. I did see the therapist but never told of any other things that have happened to me. After moving to 'Gulf Breeze', Florida I got to study this phenomona. Something is going on here for sure. It's not so strange after all; it's quite common in Gulf Breeze.

What happened immediately afterwards is that we both just walked back to my house not really thinking anything was 'off-beat'. It wasn't untill 1991 that we spoke about it; realizing that that was not normal. This incident happened in the early '70's'. Personally, I have had several experiences before then and after. Cindie

anomoly,

Yes I was checked out. After I moved to Gulf Breeze to study the phenomena, I met many people who have helped me deal with this (Including Whitley Streiber, David Jacobs etc..). I have never had appendisitis but woke one morning (after a strange nights sleep), I woke with a stomach ache like a mule had kicked me. Well I looked, (for some odd reason), at my stomach and found an appendisitis scar. It was all healed and looked like an old scar. A couple months later (after another strange nights sleep), I woke up to the feeling of being kicked in the back by another mule. My daughter then looked at my back to find a one to one and a-half inch scar. Of course I couldn't see it but the Dr. pointed out that if I just put my hand back there I could feel it. That's when I got really upset with what the heck is going on here. I left Gulf Breeze after ten years of oddities and came back home to Milw. There's something really happening in Gulf Breeze with the government, I believe, and our visitors. Cindie

Can you share some of the things that have happened to you? I have personal reasons for wanting to know, but I'm sure everyone here is curious. If you find it too difficult to talk about them I understand.
Does you friend still not like to talk to you about?


Edit: We must have cross-posted, so I've just read your last post. I also have an unexplained scar on my abdomen, which I didn't even realize I had (it was hidden in a tiny crease on my lower abdomen) until a doctor asked me what sort of surgery I had had. I've never had any abdomenal surgery, but the doctor insisted that it was a very nicely done surgical scar.

I'd love to hear more of this.

you know, the lady did ask quite politely no hecklers.
fascinating story though, and welcome to UM if I haven't allready said so.
