Maria Cuccio was a married Long Island piano teacher and mother of three when she woke up in the middle of the night in 1992 to a blinding white light! She felt her body lifted by a beam, and found herself aboard a spacecraft surrounded by tall robed beings. She was shown a group of children, including an 8-year-old boy she was told was her son, Elijah! Maria recounts the unbelievable experience, and explains the profound impact it had on her life. She details the Long Island and Montauk UFO activity of the 1980s and 90s, the reactions of her husband, children, doctors, and psychiatrists, and the decades she spent journaling her experiences in silence before finally speaking out. Maria also discusses suppressed childhood memories, missing time, unexplained disappearances, government disclosure, UAPs, and why she believes thousands of women around the world share variations of her same story.
