In the mid 1940s James Wilburn Chauncey died of bacterial (Meningococcal) spinal meningitis. He was pronounced dead, covered with a white sheet to await the morgue and a Dept. of Health ordered cremation. Several hours later, when two housekeepers entered the quarantined room, they were greeted by a most terrifying sight: a seven-year-old boy who was most certainly not dead—at least not anymore. Though he suffered amnesia and couldn’t remember anything prior to getting sick, James vividly recalled his experience in paradise while dead. That experience which was aided by his inquisitive mind and boyish spon taneity, included being introduced to his previously deceased siblings and forbears and being shown a vision of his future and the future of the earth. Though considered a Miracle Boy, few people believed he was actually an eyewitness to heaven. The more common response was that the disease has damaged his brain permanently and he was retarded. Ostracized by his brothers and his classmates, James had tremendous problems in school, with his friends, and with life in general. He soon developed anger at Jesus for not taking him back to paradise. Nevertheless, he eventually came face to face to himself-someone with great God given ability and an insight into timeless truths about the place God has prepared for us-if we are faithful to His Word and Will.
Over the next six decades, although James remained silent about his experience and acted like a seemingly normal man his life was both an unfolding response to his trip to heaven and at times a humorous adventure with men great and small crossing his path as he restled with the obligation to inform others about the other side.
 A bit like a reluctant Jonah, James finally decided to tell his story after being prompted by heart attacks and even two brushes with deadly cancer and through the persistence of his daughters, the book Eyewitness to Heaven finally became a reality. Eyewitness to Heaven-A Glimpse into the Obscure-is James´s story.
