They’re saying it’s my child—
I Can’t Believe this is Happening!

Yvonne Smith, C.Ht.

I met John S. in 1992. He’d sent me a letter saying he was experiencing crying bouts and would often find himself walking at night in isolated areas of the desert all alone. I am a hypnotherapist specializing in Post Traumatic Stress Disorders suffered by abductees, and John’s is one of hundreds of abduction cases I have worked with since 1990.

One event bothering John was a Dec. 31, 1980 experience he had while driving California’s Highway 5. John was heading to Sacramento to ring in the New Y ear with his girlfriend.

Before the hypnosis began, what John recalled was that shortly after 10 p.m. that night he had spotted a large, dark object coming toward him and moving slowly left to right. When John uneventfully passed the object, he looked behind him, but it was no longer in sight. “I have to see what this is,” he commented to himself, and his thought was to pull over.

He next remembered his truck engine sputtering and that he felt groggy, as though he had just awakened from sleep, but he was driving and both hands were on the steering wheel. It struck him as odd that all the holiday traffic was gone and no other cars were in sight on the roadway. Thinking only a few minutes had passed, he called his girlfriend to tell her about his unusual observation, and was he startled when she was angry with him. He had no idea it was 1 a.m.— three hours later!

John’s first appointment with me for hypnotic regression was in the winter of 1992; it was to be an exploration which would last many years. In connection with just the 1992 experience on the highway, John and I did six hypnotic regressions, each filled with heart wrenching emotion and sense of loss of control. John was tormented by the thought: “When will this happen again?” John’s was a “missing time” event—a term coined by my colleague and mentor, Budd Hopkins, many years ago. (The first documented “missing time” case was the historic Sept. 1961 double abduction of Betty and Barney Hill.)

The following transcribed excerpts from a hypnosis sessions with John S. reveal the strong emotions he expressed during these exhausting sessions. Without a doubt, something traumatic happened to him in 1980.

JS: They are leading me somewhere, they take me by the hand and I have no control, they seem to have all the control and I don’t like it.

YS: Just describe where they are taking you.

JS: (Crying) They want me to look and I don’t want to look!

YS: What are they showing you John?

JS: (Crying) Oh God! Showing me tanks! I don’t want to see it, I don’t want to be here!

John could not bear to look at what was being shown to him, and It took two hypnosis sessions to get through his block and finally take a look. Eventually, John described a small “baby” floating in some type of heavier-than-water fluid. Tearfully, he described one of “them” saying this particular baby was his and that he had to show love for it:

JS: They’re saying I’m here for a reason, there are a number of them telling me it’s my child, to love it, to feel love for that baby. I need to connect, they tell me it will help the baby feel part of something. I can’t believe this is happening!

After showing John “his baby,” the beings escorted him to another room he described as “Clean, sterile and bright, with a long table with a pedestal in the middle.” John began crying and saying, “I’m telling them I don’t want to do this again.”

While doing extensive work on John ’s 1980 experience, memories began coming to him as far back as when he was 7 years old. As the picture filled in, now when John was being escorted into a room with a table the scene was familiar, and he knew what was going to happen:
JS: (Crying) They say they are just going to take a sample... It’s not right what they’re doing... it’s not right!

Another of the cases in my forthcoming book concerns a double abduction of two women, “Laci” and “Loretta” (names changed for privacy) who, like John, were abducted while driving on a busy California freeway. They experienced two and a half hours of missing time.

During one session with Laci, she spontaneously regressed back to an experience she had at age 14, when vacationing with her parents. She recalled swimming by herself and then she heard her name called:

Laci: They’re calling my name... uh, they say I have to come with them. . .and I don’t wanna go, I don’t wanna go!

Laci became hysterical during the regression as she realized she was under their control and knew she had no choice. Accompanied by two small beings, Laci described being floated up to a craft and placed on a table:

Laci: They want to take something from me that belongs to them! I don’t have nothing that belongs to them!

The beings began removing something from her vagina:

Laci: It feels... feels like pulling... and they just take something out! I don’t know what it is... I hurt, it hurts... and they don’t care!

During this regression, Laci recalled the beings telling her she had been “helping them” since she was twelve years old. Like John, Laci has had these experiences since she was a child.

I have worked with many cases where young girls, at the onset of their menstrual periods, began having gynecological procedures done to them and numerous accounts, as in John ’s case, of babies and young children being shown to them as they are told, “These are your children.”

Those of us studying the abduction phenomenon, knowing that these babies and children will eventually grow up, ask, what will become of them?

During the February 2007 International UFO Congress, I had breakfast with another colleague, abduction researcher David Jacobs, PhD. W e discussed the latest in abduction research. “I believe we have now entered a new phase of this alien agenda, which deeply involves the evolution of the ongoing hybridization,” David told me.

I am not sure I am ready for this “new phase.” However, I cannot turn away from working with all those individuals out there who are just beginning to wonder if certain “memories” or “dreams” may be the result of the buried trauma of abduction.

I hope my book, CHOSEN: Revelations of Alien Abduction through Hypnosis, will pierce the veil of doubt, ridicule and complacency, and encourage the general public to step out of their safe box.

In the hundreds of cases I have studied as a hypnotherapist, I have come across many abductees who have been told that “when the time is right” they will be leading groups of people who have spiritually awakened, who are “chosen.”

In fact, if my colleagues Budd and David are right, these perfected hybrids are, at the present time, already living among us. The important, not yet known, issue is: W ill they live side by side in harmony with us? Or will “we” eventually be led somewhere else, out “there,” when they decide the time is right?

Who will be “the chosen”?
