Thought I was going to die!

Ok. I thought I was going to die while on vacation. I was taking a nap with my little one. My circulation was being cut off in my arm because my little darling was lying on it. I moved him off my arm and then turned over on my side. Here's where it gets interesting. I immediately felt this rush of movement from my toes up to the top of my head. It felt like someone was jumping on the bed. I was still groggy, but decided to call out for my sister. Unfortunately I was unable to open my eyes or speak. This completely freaked me out. I couldn't even move a finger. I thought to myself, "self this must be what it's like to be in a coma, or have a stroke". So I decided to say a prayer and just wait to wake up in heaven.

I did wake up a bit later without any of the symptoms I had earlier. Was I dreaming? No. I've found out since then I was experiencing sleep paralysis. Apparently many people suffer with this quite often. This has never happened to me till now. A search of the web yields much info about this weird phenomena. Many people experience strange symptoms but it's completely harmless.

Just thought I'd share.

Sounds like you were at the Bear Paw in St George Utah or was it the Buffet at the Bellagio in Vegas? Anyway you did a great job driving through Zion National Park!
