Little boy returns from afterlife to tell his grieving mother about heaven

When he was eight years old, Landon Whitley of North Carolina was declared dead only to wake up and share his experience of the afterlife.

His mother, Julie Kemp, has written a book about it and shared about her feelings in an interview with CBN.

After Whitley regained consciousness, he started to talk about seeing his father and his unborn older siblings.

His mother recalled: "I said, 'Landon, do you know where your dad is at?' And he told me, 'Yes, I know where he's at, I saw him in heaven.'"

She continued, "He looked over to me and he says, 'Oh mom, by the way, I forgot to tell you I saw your other two kids.' And I just looked at him because I wasn't sure what he was talking about. But I had two miscarriages before Landon was born"

Kemp said she and her husband had never shared about her miscarriages with Landon.

The boy claimed that he instantly recognized his siblings when he saw them in the afterlife.

"I knew that they were my siblings even though no one had ever told me about them. Just being in heaven, I guess you know your own or know who everyone is," Landon told CBN in an interview.

The road crash left Landon badly injured. Some 23 metal plates had to be placed in his head. His left eye was also impaired.

Aside from his father and his unborn siblings, Landon also said that he saw Jesus and angels in the afterlife.

"I just want people to realize that Jesus is real, there is a heaven, there are angels, and to follow his word and the bible, and life does get better at the end," he said.

His mother chronicled Landon's experience with afterlife in a book, titled 'Faith Has Its Reasons'.
