Thanks to her daughter the entrepreneur Carmen Paul discovered riding and within a short space of time she owned three horses. What a dream life ! However things changed dramatically within a split second. Dismounting from her horse she suffered a severe kick in the face. Suffering life threatening injuries she was brought to the very brink of death. It was exactly in this condition she experienced life in Heaven: she came face to face with her Maker and Redeemer. The doctors who treated her foresaw life in a wheelchair with grave mental handicaps. However things worked out completely differently – after suffering a complete memory loss Carmen started building a new life for herself.

Отрывок из книги
What a life story! I had the privilege of meeting Carmen Paul in person, and was permitted to interview her telling us about her “life after death” experience for our TV Station ”Wunderheute.tv”. Tens of thousands felt moved to offer their comments after watching this interview (to date it numbers 101,000 individuals). One of those calling in commented “Lord, you are even better than the most sublime words can describe. I love you”.
Another lady wrote: “Many, many thanks Carmen, you have really made me long for Heaven. However, it is important to remember that we have our work here on this earth to do first, however much we desire to be living up there”. In my opinion this sums up the highly impressive “life after death” experience Carmen had the privilege of going through: life after death with its incredible love and beauty is all very well, but we must not forget about the ‘here and now’, where we can likewise experience God’s beauty through his creation as well as His individual love which the Lord showers upon us.

I have also to thank my granddad for having all the horses, cows, pigs and poultry as he introduced me to another important adult in my life. All his livestock and poultry required the presence of a vet from time to time. This happened to be a lady, called Doctor Elenore Rau – she was young, with dark hair, self-confident, and warm-hearted. She formed a deep impression on me, well before I started school. There was no kindergarten in our village, and thus I spent many a happy hour with “Mrs Doctor”, who took me along when animals had to be ‘got well again’. We were very alike in our thinking. Mrs Doctor would pick me up with her Wartburg 311 and drive me to the respective cow shed. These could be the huge ‘modern’ ones run by the LPG, or the small old ones like that of my granddad, these would be the remaining private ones.
That the LPG farms effectively were appropriated from the small farmers compulsorily at that time; many were the tears shed by the farmers at the loss of their private property. The Farms had all been declared “state property”, there being “no private ownership in the communist system”, something that I didn’t appreciate at my age. I was only interested in the welfare of the animals there, seeing them get better, whether they were the property of the state or in private hands.
