"(WATCHED)", not in Really good touch,with what had just happened,because I was so young 9 or 11 at the time,I do believe. I however watched,how my mother cried so hard and how my mother was deeply Saddened,and how it then hit me that I was not going to be able to see them here on this planet or world ever again!! Then I was completely just Comformted,with out a shadow of Doubt,That when it happens and you die!! ""(You- Gain)",!!Meaning the place that this place is the "(HEAVENS)", which is far 150% percent way far better than what I after growing up a bit!! And now understanding,and now believing it!!
