I knew I was in heaven.” Describing heaven, Charlotte spoke of a feeling of joy with no fear. “I saw trees, grass. Everything was swaying with music because everything in heaven worships God. It is millions of times greater than our thoughts,” she said.
Charlotte also mentioned young and healthy forms of her dead family members and historical saints. “I saw my mother, father and sister. They were all healthy and young.
