“He really wants me to go with him”I met my late grandmother in the world! The model talks about a near-death experience
“It feels like imagining a beautiful dream!”
SSince her participation in “Germany’s Next Top Model” 2021, Chanel Silberberg is known as a model and influencer. But behind the perfect photos on social media, there are stories that catch your attention. In the video, the 24-year-old woman talks about her near-death experience and how her life has now changed again…
The bacteria migrated through Chanel Silberberg’s body
The former GNTM candidate has long had a carefree and carefree childhood. He grew up as an only child with his mother. However, at a young age, Chanel realized that she was different from other children. ““It actually started when I was six or seven years old, when I had to go to the toilet more often, I also had blood in my stool and of course that wasn’t right.”
And then the whole procedure starts with the hospital and the doctor. But doctors initially made the wrong diagnosis. At the age of eleven, Chanel’s condition rapidly deteriorated. Small bruises formed on her ankles and arms. “And they were dead cells. They were really black, like dead tissue,” said the 24-year-old man. Bacteria spread throughout your body. “The doctor said at the time: It’s not far to reach the heart and I will really die,” he recalled. Only now did doctors realize that Chanel suffered from Crohn’s disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease. In more than 30 operations, they removed the inflamed tissue down to the bone. Chanel falls into a coma.

“He really wants me to go with him”
While in a coma, Chanel experienced an experience that changed her life forever. “It feels like imagining a beautiful dream,” he said. He saw himself in a green meadow, the sun was shining. He walks through bright lights towards someone: his late grandmother, whom he never met. “He really wanted me to go with him. But then I said that I didn’t want that at all, that I wanted to go back to my mother.” The girl gave her grandmother a dog that accompanied her in her dreams. “And then he turned around with my dog and I went back the other way.” After waking up, Chanel discovered that her dog had actually died that night. Doctors confirmed that he had briefly clinically died, a near-death experience.

For him, this was a miracle and a huge blessing.
