On the 21st
September, 2002 Ann Andrews, author of Abducted, spoke
in Brisbane at an evening that was hosted by the Australian
UFO Researchers Network. Ann told the story of her youngest
son’s experiences with ETs that began from birth and still
continue until the present day. Her son, Jason, who is now 19,
suffered from much isolation mostly caused by his parent’s
refusal to accept that he was being abducted by aliens. Ann
now feels much guilt because of this, and this is the reason,
she says, why she wrote the book, as well as endeavouring to
help other parents who are struggling with their children’s
experiences. For 12 years Ann refused to believe in alien
abductions or the paranormal. She told Jason his experiences
were merely dreams and nightmares.
Jason’s story
began when he was born. He was a healthy baby, although during
the birth he had some complications that stopped his heartbeat
temporarily. When Jason was a few weeks old and he would cry,
his parents would enter his room only to find he was lying on
the floor behind the door or under his cot. His parents
thought his 3 ½ year old brother Daniel was the culprit and he
was dong this out of jealousy for his newly arrived baby
brother. Ann and her husband sought advice from their doctor
who told them to leave things alone and Daniel would get
bored. So they did and Jason ceased to be moved. This
convinced them even more that Daniel was the one shuffling
Jason around.
At the same
time Daniel started speaking of a "soldier man" called "Junus"
ho would visit him from the stars at night. Ann and her
husband found Daniel to be very knowledgeable about the stars
and other things that a 3 ½ year old would not normally be
aware of. On Jason’s 4th birthday Jason started to have
strange dreams. He would tell his mother that little people
would take him to a hospital and Jason wanted to know why his
parents would let them. At this stage his parents still
thought he was having nightmares.
At one stage
Ann and her family lived in a farmhouse in England. One night
Ann’s room filled with bright light and Ann heard screams
coming from Jason’s room. Ann raced into his room to find
Jason yelling, "they are coming, don’t let them take me." Ann
placated Jason and thought the bright light was strange, but
eventually thought it must have been a helicopter.
Along with
these night time encounters Ann and her family also had to
deal with strange poltergeist activity. Again, while Jason was
still 4 years old a strange incident occurred at 10pm on a
humid July night. There was a knock at the door. Ann opened
the door and found nobody to be there. She looked up and down
the country laneway but couldn’t see anyone. she shut the door
and returned to what she was doing. There was another knock at
the door but this time when Ann went to go to the door there
was a flash of light. At the same time Jason sat bolt upright
in bed in a trance-like state and began speaking numbers. The
banging started again all over the house. By this time Ann
decided to ring the police but found the phone wasn’t working.
Jason went to
walk out the door and announced to his parents, "I have to go,
they’re waiting for me." Jason’s father Paul, grabbed Jason
and shook him to bring him back to normal consciousness. As
Jason woke up the knocking stopped. Eventually Ann rang the
police and they did come out to their property to investigate
but couldn’t find anything unusual. The only thing which
remained unanswered was the fact that there was a lot of rain
at the time and whoever was doing the knocking should have
left footprints in the moist soil. Despite everything that had
happened, Ann and her husband once again convinced themselves
that what had happened was explainable.
Until now Ann
and her husband had been successful at raising calves on their
farm but one day Paul came in to the house and told Ann that
one of the calves had mysteriously died. The next day he found
2 more had died and the day after 14 died. By this time Paul
requested a report and analysis be done to unearth the strange
deaths. However, over the next week all of the remaining
calves died. Paul and Ann were told the sheep had a rare form
of salmonella and they were told to burn the carcasses and the
farm was quarantined. They received a further call from
someone from the Ministry of Defence who told them to stop
burning the carcasses and just to keep them and someone would
collect them. Soon after, a white van pulled up and men
dressed in quarantine suits began scanning their property with
what seemed like metal detectors. They were asked to hand over
their cattle records. One man sent a message on his radio and
soon after another van turned up. The men from this van
wrapped each carcass in plastic and loaded them into the van
to take them away.
A few weeks
later Paul phoned the Ministry to see if they had found
anything further, only to be told that no personnel from that
office told them to keep the carcasses. A couple of days later
council officials told Ann and Paul they could no longer live
on their property as they had no calves (due to some strange
English by-law) and would have to move to public housing in
the local town. This was only a temporary measure and they
were assured they would be able to move back as soon as they
restocked. It has now been 9 years and they are still applying
to move back to their property. (Since this time the farmhouse
has been sold, the buildings have been burnt down, the fences
gone and the trees have disappeared. Ann said people who read
her book have gone to the site and reported to her that within
15 minutes of them arriving a white land rover arrives and
people tell them to leave. Ann and Paul have done some
investigating of their own since the initial deaths of their
calves with the office of ADAS who have reported there is no
record of the disease outbreak with their stock. Ann and
Paul’s property was adjacent to a Ministry of Defence property
and it when all the pieces of this puzzle are put together
it’s possible that some sort of experiment conducted there
went terribly wrong and this was followed by a cover-up)
Meanwhile Jason
seemed to settle down and live a normal enough life but around
the age of 12 the "nightmares" began again. Little people
would come to get him and he could hear himself scream but no
sound would come out. Jason was now always tired and he was
displaying bad behaviour in school. His teachers couldn’t
understand the changes in him and the Principal refused to
have Jason at the school any longer unless he began to see a
child psychologist. The psychologist sent Jason to hospital
for a sleep test and to check his brain wave patterns. The
results of these were that he was perfectly normal. Through
all this Jason still insisted that he was being taken at
night.
At one stage
Jason by chance saw a program about hypnosis on the TV. The
gentleman in the program was having hypnosis to remember close
encounter experiences that he was having. This greatly
disturbed Jason who wildly exclaimed to his parents, "that man
is so stupid, he shouldn’t want to remember everything. I
remember everything!" Both Paul and Ann looked at each other
dumbfounded as Jason stormed out of the room. Their other son
Daniel looked at them and asked "don’t you get it yet?"
Daniel, who was now 16, told his parents that his childhood
Junus was real and Junus had stopped coming to him because he
had made a mistake. It was actually Jason they wanted.
By this time
Ann and Paul began to begrudgingly accept that something
really was gong on with their son. Jason told his parents what
had been happening to him all through the years. Both Ann and
Paul found it hard to believe but they began to buy UFO books
and eventually got in touch with Tony Dodd, the well known
English UFO researcher. The psychologist too, eventually came
to the conclusion that Jason was telling the truth.
Not long after
Ann decided to take both Jason and Daniel away on a holiday
camp. Sometime on the holiday Ann heard Jason screaming and
she rushed to him. Hs was terrified but managed to say to Ann,
"they are making me feel what they feel and see what they see.
Just don’t touch me". After half an hour Jason was fine and he
told his mother that he was learning to handle his experiences
and he was going to be okay.
Life went on
and Jason was taken on as a pupil by a horse riding trainer.
One day Ann received a call from the stables to get there
quickly. Ann was told that Jason had been in the middle of 2
horses attacking each other, they were on the ground and Jason
had been underneath them. Ann raced over to the stables
expecting to see an ambulance but she was told that Jason had
remarkably escaped the situation, just got up and dusted
himself off without being hurt. Everyone present was amazed
that Jason was still alive let alone able to stand up and walk
around. When asked what happened Jason replied that the other
horse could sense that ‘they’ were with him and the horse just
got scared. Jason claims the beings are with him and he allows
them to experience things through his feelings. During the
horse incident they absorbed his pain. Ann was convinced of
the serious situation her son had been in when she saw the
large hole in the fence made by the horses. Jason also had
hoof prints on his back and all down one side of his body
turned black and blue.
After this
event Jason had his first out of body experience where he saw
himself in his bed. He said that he thought he wanted to be
with his parents and the next thing he knew he was in the
lounge room. One of the family dog’s reacted badly to his
appearance and he thought it would bite him but the next thing
he knew he was back in his room waking up. He has since become
adept at OBE’s and can now do this at will.
Ann said that
sometimes after an abduction experience Jason is full of
energy, so much so that once he touched her and left a burn on
her arm. When Jason is angry he will often blow light bulbs
and Ann always buys spare light bulbs in bulk. Jason has also
melted 2 mobile phones while in his possession. Ann commented
that she can’t plug in any electrical appliances around Jason
as they will blow out, but she did say he comes in handy when
the car battery has gone flat. Being a typical teenager, Jason
has turned this situation to his advantage and has been found
charging 20p to give his school mates an electric shock. (what
an entrepreneur)
Jason has been
told by his ET contacts that he is an original soul and this
is his first existence on this planet. When he was born his
body actually died and Jason stepped in making him a walk-in.
He also says the aliens have awakened him to the idea of being
an ET himself and Jason considers himself a starchild. Jason
has stated that these ETs are here to help and guide us on the
right path and human s have annihilated themselves many times
before. When Ann asked why the ETs don’t just take us over and
get us on track Jason said if they did this they would also
take away all the good things about being human, like
curiosity. Jason states if we keep denying our spiritual
aspects we will end up in trouble.
Sometimes Jason
reports to his parents that people will remotely view Jason
and he can do this too. Ann has received 6 letters from people
who claim that Jason was there helping them when they were in
trouble. Jason has corroborated this. Ann also states that the
atmosphere in Jason’s room is like a veil which is heavy and
choking. Jason states this is an aura of protection.
Ann describes
her story as "going from confusion to begrudging acceptance"
and it’s not over yet. These experiences with her family
continue and it appears that Ann herself may have had close
encounters too. We will have to stay tuned. Anyone wanting to
read her book can usually pick it up in Australia for about
$4.95 at the publishers ends sales in their local shopping
centres.
