Judith McIntyre: An Intimate Interview on Terminal Cancer & Serge Benhayon

June 19, 2017

In May 2014, Judith McIntyre was in the final stages of terminal breast cancer. In this interview, filmed four weeks before her passing, Judith shared her extraordinary unfoldment with understanding the ‘why’ of her diagnosis. What is most astounding, however, is Judith’s acceptance and the deep joy she chose to live to her very last breath.

Engaging a model of palliative care pioneered by Serge Benhayon, the founder and director of Universal Medicine, Judith was supported by a team of volunteers and palliative care experts. This gave her the dignity and grace to enjoy her last days in the nurturing environment of her own home.

In this intimate and personal account of the dying process, Judith shared her revelations and insights about life and death, the support offered by Serge and effortlessly showed that we are far more than a mere physical body. Her infectious appreciation for what life offers, at every stage, stands as an everlasting testament to what is possible when we make life about love and truth.

As a well spent day brings happy sleep,

so a life well spent brings happy death.

Leonardo Da Vinci

The first diagnosis was in June 2011 – breast cancer… yeah… and initially they thought, ‘Oh that’s fine, we’ll just remove the lump,’ but they went back and they said, ‘We didn’t get it all. We’ll have to do a second surgery’ and then they came back and said, ‘We’re going to have to take the breast.’

So… some people thought: that’s really hard, three surgeries, but for me it gave me time to accept… what was happening.

20th May 2014

4 weeks before Judith passed away

I’m Judith McIntyre. I’m 66 years old and I live in Goonellabah.

An interview with Judith McIntyre

I was very frightened. In the early period of knowing, I was so scared, my legs would dance off the bed at night. I was shaking… Yeah, I was very scared. I did not want to lose my breast. At all.

I began to see Serge Benhayon. I met him at the Writer’s Festival in Byron. Just a flukey thing. I heard a bit about him and… sort of crawled out of bed one day… and went to hear him speak. I got in the tent and someone got up because it was full and there was a seat and he began to talk about breast cancer which wasn’t his topic… there was an incredible flow.

After the talk, he turned around just as I went up to the front… I spoke to him; he said, “What is your truth? Speak your truth. Speak what’s happening.”

So, I just opened my mouth and said, “I’ve got breast cancer.”

And he said, “You need deep self-nurturing.”

I didn’t know what that meant, but I knew I wanted to know… and because I wasn’t in remission, he said he’d see me.

And when I went to see him, from the very first session, my fear levels just went down like that… and I told him I didn’t want to lose my breast.

I’m always optimistic. I thought, “I’m not going to have to lose my breast.” 

And he said to me, “The soul doesn’t need the breast”… and it just opened up my perspective. I was only thinking of my loss… but I thought, “At least I’ve got my life.”

How did you begin to self-nurture?

Just recognising all the ways I wasn’t loving to myself… I thought I was, you know, organic food and all this sort of thing. It was all outside; it wasn’t my relationship to me – that’s what I developed. And I first learned that with chakra-puncture that Serge gave me, where I dropped into such a place of stillness and depth in myself… I thought, “OK… this is where I want to come from.”

I practised the gentle breath meditation… and learned how to be with me and I used the chakra-puncture depths when I went into chemo, which I also didn’t want; I didn’t want any of the treatments. Every treatment that came up they suggested, (I thought) “I don’t want to do that.” Each time Serge supported me to follow through with the medical treatments; and he said, “In the chemo, just rest deeply’ and so I did and I had no problem – I lost my hair and I was very tired – but no vomiting, no problems.

Understanding illness and disease

I’ve learned a great deal about how disease is actually a form of healing.

I had a second diagnosis in September 2013 and my cancer had metastasised very quickly. It was in my spine, and I suddenly had much less time. And this time, because of the understanding I had that I had created the disease by all my self-neglect, my choices, I had time to… working with the teachings of Universal Medicine, to really… I just changed everything in my life. Everything. Relationships, the way I moved, the way I walked, the way I was in my body and my life was so beautiful; even though there was a lot going on.

With the second diagnosis, when the doctor told me… I just felt lovely. It was a complete contrast from the first.

I just thought, ‘OK. This is what’s happening now… ’ and the doctor said to me, ‘Sometimes the doctor learns from the patients.’

It was not too long later… it was April 2014, I got the third diagnosis. It’s spread to organs, and I’ve got very little time… and the truth is I feel excited… I’ve gone from terror, to a lovely acceptance, to, “OK, now’s the big adventure.”

I told a friend who worked in palliative care and she said, “That’s weird. Nobody feels like that. Most people feel so defeated.”

But I have such a different perspective. I feel like I could have died without learning what was really happening, what life’s really about, and I didn’t miss it… just in time!

The blessing of true support

The most special friendship for me has been with Ingrid, who, from the first moment, (she came to drive me to the clinic for sessions because I needed a lift,) and then she wanted to care for me, and so she moved in with me for a while and we decided we wanted to buy a house together, but because of my illness, I eventually said, ‘I don’t want any ownership responsibilities anymore,’ and Ingrid was happy to buy the house herself and she sets me up in the best room and just takes beautiful care of me… I have never, ever had so much love in my life as I’ve had in the last few years. On every level… so much joy.

Re-discovering the teachings of Universal Medicine

Actually what was most frightening for me with the first diagnosis was not dying, but I felt I’d wasted my time: 30 years of disciplined meditation practice, studying ancient scriptures, trying to find wisdom and truth and a connection to God, and when it came down to it, with the diagnosis, I was as lost as anybody.

And I thought, “I know nothing… know absolutely nothing. What have I done with my life?”

And once I found the teachings of Universal Medicine, I thought, “Oh. This is it. It’s all so simple.” Not all this complexity about enlightenment and Sanskrit chanting, all this stuff… just connecting with yourself. And the reward for it is amazing. The ease that life starts to take on as you really care for yourself first, which I had never done, was so precious.

The ripple effect on family and friends

Amazing things are happening. My ex-husband’s family have a long history of fear of death and denial, and my sister in law came to visit me just a few days ago. She told me more about people she’s seen dying of cancer. Everyone had had a terrible time. They can’t face it. They’re grasping something new, raw food or something… right to the end. Never accepting. And she saw the distress for everyone left behind, and the sorrow of the person dying in that kind of torment and she’s been watching me and she keeps observing “no pain, no fear…”

Just before she left she said, “You have taught me so much.” And then she sent me a text this morning and it said, ‘This visit with you was the turning point for me.’… and that means so much, because I’ve been in that family for 40 years… and I know she’s going to go back and she’s going to start to show the family there’s another way.

Things like that happen to me all the time. It’s just another exquisitely beautiful gift for me. It’s actually the most amazing adventure, moment to moment. Of course, a lot of my moments I’m kind of like this (Judith lays back her head on the pillow as if she’s unable to move). But, yeah…

The dying process

This body is so tired. So worn out. And I know I keep going.

That’s another interesting thing, because I already had memories of past lives before my diagnosis. I had no question in my mind about reincarnation. It didn’t help… it didn’t help, because I did not have the truth. I did not have the true philosophy, which is so simple that anyone can understand it. And of course, I mean, God would be simple. He wouldn’t make it hard for us. That’s what we people do.

Yeah… I’m really looking forward to it. I do want to write a little bit more if I can. So when I have energy I sit up and write blogs, and that’s my joy too, because all my life I’ve been trying to write and it’s never worked very well. For other people, you know, jobs… but not my own writing. I couldn’t find my voice. Now I‘ve found it. And here I am… you know, I can hardly brush my teeth without help, and I’m writing. This is this another amazing thing that’s happened… you know like, ‘Here you go, you can have this.’

How to have fun while dying

I had this idea to write a blog called How to Have Fun While Dying. One of the ways is that I decided to get a cardboard coffin and Rosie, a friend of mine and her nine-year-old daughter are going to paint it for me. And I have other gorgeous indulgences, like, I bought all these expensive French creams and people put them on me, and I just lie here and smell them.

There’s an amazing amount of pleasure and joy being in this bed… and you’d think, ‘That’s a pretty miserable place to be, about to die, can’t even get out of bed without help…’

No… it’s not actually what I am experiencing.

I mean it’s true, I need help to get out of bed, but the most beautiful things are happening… So much love just blooms around me… It’s a very wonderful time.

I think that people don’t realise… if you can be with each moment, let it unfold, every moment has got something to offer. And I don’t mind letting go. I loved my wheelie walker when I could still walk; now I love my wheelchair because I can’t walk. I had to give up my queen size bed; now I love my hospital bed… I’m just with it. I’m just with each thing as it happens and… it’s fine.

Conclusion

I’ve done a lot of work… a lot of work, to… make this time… have a lot of space in it… because I’m not dragging any baggage… and I love the clarity that I have and that I don’t feel any issues with anyone and that allows me to really enjoy each moment.

I just had such a complicated way of living before, so many entanglements, so yeah, I feel so well in myself. So well. More than ever before.

There’s been a growing gap over those three diagnoses. The first one, you know, I was a mess emotionally and my body was. My second one, I had already begun to have a sense of myself, that even though the body was going to go soon, I felt lovely. And this third time, it’s just enormous the gap between the feeling that, I’ll die very soon; the body will die and I feel so alive and clear and well.

The Esoteric Philosophy of Re-incarnation presents the fact that it is the energetic quality we pass over in that we will return to in our next life.

Judith McIntyre joy-fully passed over on the 17th June 2014.

    “ I feel like I could have died without learning what was really happening, what life’s really about, and I didn’t miss it… just in time!” How extraordinary to read this, and how inspiring. What perspective death can bring, to appreciate and maximise what we have and to not get caught up in ‘stuff’, but enjoy the same freedom Judith had to relish what she had been given, and could feel within herself. Always a wake-up call to read this.

    An amazing sharing of a way to complete life with no fear and instead – appreciation, joy, dignity, and a commitment to share what has been learned with everyone. What Judith lived sets a precedent for all, what if all of us could die without symptoms of sadness, regret, resentment or fear? What if we all lived every spark of joy in every day- as Judith demonstrated possible no matter what we face. This amazing women has set the standard, for which we may do the same.

    I come back to this interview every now and then and am always touched and inspired by something. Judith’s sparkle is always one thing and today, maybe because I am in Goonellabah for the first time in my life, I feel extra inspired by what took place when Judith passed over. I absolutely know that when I pass this story will be part of my support and understanding.

    So alive in the dying process, when you look into her eyes you can see how ignited she is and the level of vitality that is present. It cannot be just physical, for a terminal cancer patient often do not look like that, it is energetic, it is soulful – she is soul-full.

  • Reply natilda bathurst May 23, 2019 at 8:27 pm

    Gosh how we need to hear experiences like these that turn our behaviour and approach to death on its head. And actually I understand more and more that to learn to surrender and let go of our ideals and beliefs in life is to prepare responsibly, lovingly and without fear for death.

  • Reply Viktoria April 4, 2019 at 3:09 pm

    There is so much depth in this video, what Judith shares has many layers & much wisdom. We live a life afraid of death, we go to the doctors and ask to save us from the ill choices we have been making that lead the path we have walked. Many of us blame others, our children and our parents for the ill health that we are in, but how many of us truly reflect on our lives & take responsible count of how we have lived, the energy we have engaged with and had running through our bodies? What was the quality of our relationships, with our families & friends – were we open with one another, or lived in comfortable arrangements of abuse and/or dismissal? Or were we simply using one another for our own self-centred needs? How did we go to work – only for money & to earn more, or was there a bigger purpose to everything that we did, every project we were ever given? How do we live our lives, how are we within every single day, what quality do we bring to everything that we do? How many of us have asked those questions & pondered on them?

  • Reply Matilda Bathurst January 27, 2019 at 5:23 pm

    There is so much grace and beauty in Judith’s acceptance and embracing of dying. And yes the way we live absolutely informs the way we die.

  • Reply Matilda January 27, 2019 at 5:21 pm

    What people yearn for me than anything else is to be met for who they are and this is so apparent in health care settings when people feel vulnerable and out of their comfort zones. The magic that can happen when we simply honour and hold someone is truly remarkable. Talking to people I have worked with, the enduring effect of any experience is the quality and care with which they were treated. It is absolutely in all of our hands to know and live this.

    This is the most inspiring account from someone with a terminal illness I have seen. In fact the only inspiring account, most people seem to be given up, resentful or a ghost of themselves. It is so clear from her own words how she cherished what she had received from Universal Medicine. Imagine if we all had the same lead up to our own passing.

      Such examples that show us the depth of care, honouring and appreciation of one another we can have in our relationships, as well the absolute joy that can be our everyday experience simply because of how we choose to relate to it, are absolute gold.

    Yes that moment in life when we are prompted to “wake up and start to question our life and what we have really done with it” is huge and often confronting .

    To embrace death not as an end point we spend our whole lives avoiding but as a passageway through which we pass as we continue developing and deepening back to the love that we are, is not only revelatory, it is revolutionary and completely reimprints all the poisonous ideals and beliefs we have let solidify within us that tell us otherwise.

      If we allowed ourselves to remember that death is merely a period of transition and not a final stop, then it would enable us to kick our heels up on the way. Why shouldn’t death be as much of a celebration as birth, after all it is a type of birth. We are birthed into another realm before being birthed physically once again.

    WOW how many people say they are genuinely looking forward to dying? We have so much to learn from Judith. I deeply appreciate this documentary of her. I was thinking of this interview the other day. What came to me was Judith sharing how she has these gorgeous expensive french creams that people put on her and she lays there and smells them. Why was I thinking of this? Because I do not, or have only just given permission for myself to buy lovely body creams for myself, and in honesty I am still learning to lovingly be with me while applying them, but what came to me is how long it has taken me to get to a point in my life where I have felt I am worth this. I am worth love, time, and money in buying beautifull creams for my body. Like this is something we should have, (truly deeply valuing, cherishing and caring for ourselves) from day 1 all the way through to when we do pass over not something we loose along the way and feel we are no longer worthy of care, love, time and money.

    The depth of joy, clarity, dignity and wisdom lived and expressed by Judith McIntyre so close to her passing over, regardless of her deteriorating physical body goes so against the trend of what people with terminal illness, or any illness, tend to experience. In fact most ‘well’ people are not so vibrant.
    The immense support of the Ageless Wisdom which Serge Benhayon is a tremendous presenter of, as well as the depth of healing and expansion facilitated by the numerous esoteric modalities which he has brought through, are not just for those who are sick or about to pass over. They are exquisite gifts for the whole of humanity – gifts from Heaven which you simply can not put a price on.

    Judith McIntyre offers a wonderful example of how the stop moment presented by illness and disease can be embraced to deepen our connection to all aspects of our life: our body, people, life itself and God, and also to expand our awareness, understanding, sensitivity and wisdom. A great reflection that true healing can not be reduced to getting rid of symptoms.

    It is incredible the impact of Serge Benhayon’s teachings, personal example, inspiration and the incredibly supportive modalities he has brought through. So many lives have been enriched beyond measure. We can look at increased health, greater ease when ill and a lack of angst or giving up. These changes are already amazing, but they are thrown out with the water when you see the full result such as in this interview. You can not put a price on the quality of expression, settlement, the depth of joy in the eyes and the awareness that there is so much more to us than this physical body – not as a concept, but as an absolute awareness.

    Listening to a conversation yesterday about Judith and the team that supported her when she passed over, it was made clear that this was a beautiful example of the fact that we are not designed to do things along. And yet we continue to shoulder things in isolation from others and this to me is a very faulty mix of arrogance and ignorance. The learning, collaboration and reflections we can offer each other when we work together are so much more than the sum of the parts.

    I love re-visiting this blog and video – the quality of Judith’s joy and love in preparation for her death is deeply inspiring and offers a way that is possible for all to pass over, filled with appreciation of the natural cycle of life and death, rather than being anxious, fearful or suffering with regrets.

    The level of acceptance shared here is so deeply exquisite, and offers all of us a way to live life, to be in each and every moment and know that the next moment will be that next moment. And to remember that life and loss may not be what we see initially, as Judith puts it ‘I was only thinking of my loss… but I thought, “At least I’ve got my life.”’ … and how in fact the space provided by that additional time provided huge understanding and healing. Life always offers us exactly what we need.

      There is so much inspiration and healing offered here. I feel it is even more than the words Judith speaks. You get so much between the lines. It is in her whole being and relationship with life, her situation and preparing to pass over. It is true “the level of acceptance shared here is so deeply exquisite” and inspires you to also deepen that in your own life.

The interview is a great reminder to stop and appreciate what really matters in life. It applies just as much to facing terminal disease and impending death, as it does to simply living our every day life.

    We get taught about sequences in life – that D always follows A, B and C and that 4 follows 1,2 and 3. But the part we miss out is that everything starts first with Love, care and nurturing ourselves – without this we are groundless.

    • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh May 30, 2018 at 10:56 pm

      A great insight in what you have shared. Humanity has been so proud of our ability to observe patterns, label things and write a theory about them.

    • Reply Stephanie Stevenson June 29, 2018 at 11:02 pm

      Beautifully expressed Joseph. This gets to the heart of all that is causing so much disharmony in life – we have sequences and systems in place but little or no awareness of the natural rhythms and cycles of life which encompass the love, care and nurturing ourselves.

    I have been noticing many immensely joyful, inspiring and radiant older members of the Universal Medicine student body and also many who have had serious illnesses such as cancer for many years. They all seem to be inspired by Serge Benhayon and would not consider anything other than “service to others right to the end”. Could such a choice, of a life dedicated to love, care, responsibility and deep commitment to people, be the magic pill many of us have been searching for?

    This is profound – “Actually what was most frightening for me with the first diagnosis was not dying, but I felt I’d wasted my time” – as I feel that if we are honest, many of us would feel the same – e.g. ‘what has my life been about so far?’ ‘What have I actually been doing?’ I know I have those feelings which inspire me to learn more about purpose and focus in life. Serge Benhayon has been an absolute role model for me in that – in living a purpose-full, dedicated, committed life to every detail.

    Judith is a true role model and inspiration for death and dying. Oddly enough we have role models for many things in life (some true, some not true role models) – but this is one of the few interview/articles I have found with a true role model for death and dying. Thank you Judith for leading the way. We truly need more role models for death and dying so that we clear away the taboo, myths and fear around the topic.

    How to have fun while living is to embrace and appreciate the fact that we’re all dying and know illness and disease just a gift where the body discards what it doesn’t need. The only way we can mess up is to ignore what the bigger learnings are underneath. I am so glad Judith chose to live that for herself and share her wisdom with us this way.

    This is such an inspiring interview with Judith, I can feel how totally prepared she was to pass over and the joy she felt at the prospect is so comforting as in the West we seem to think that when we die that’s it. But Judith knows there’s more than this life and that the adventure was just beginning. How amazing is that?

  • Reply mary March 7, 2018 at 4:33 pm

    I feel most of us do not know how to deeply nurture ourselves, it’s almost as though to do so would be a ‘sissy’ it’s not part of our culture. It’s as though we are trained from young to toughen up because of the perceived hardness of the world but what if we have this around the wrong way. What if actually we were encouraged from young to be more caring with ourselves and from that naturally we would be more caring with others.

    • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh March 27, 2018 at 4:39 am

      Great question Mary. What if it was not supportive at all to train our young to toughen up.

    Judith’s understanding of illness and disease, not being a wrong or a punishment but offering healing made a very big difference in how she approached her dying. To go through this and not feel defeated by this and to look forward to what was to come is laying a new foundation to what passing over can be. It does however take the commitment to work through what is needed and to be open to who and what is available to support this.

    “I’ve gone from terror, to a lovely acceptance, to, “OK, now’s the big adventure.”” In a place that many of us would find extremely challenging, it is clear to me that the support, guidance and healing that Judith received from Serge Benhayon enabled her to see way beyond the usual perimeters of terminal illness and fully appreciate the multi-dimensional truth of the situation. When we begin to feel the quality of our Soul within us, a deep and ancient stillness, it is clear to see how our bodies have to clear everything within us that does not equal this warm and powerful quality. Therefore just the process of understanding what a blessing and deep clearing it is to be diagnosed with cancer to this extent is in itself totally life changing. Embracing the process in the way Judith did makes it clear to me that it was indeed a huge adventure, one of connecting more and more to the divine stillness and appreciating what her body and soul were really clearing through the cancer, all the clutter that had accumulated from years of neglecting this precious quality within.

    The clarity, the openness and the deep settlement in Judith’s face, and the brightness of her eyes look so much healthier than majority of the people I see on a daily basis as I commute. There in s a level of health shown here by someone who is days away from passing over which is far deeper than the superficial definition we have been accepting.

      Stunning quote Matilda – truly wise words. In that it reveals how when we are ahead of ourselves even by a moment or two we are lost to the behest of thoughts, ideals, beliefs, fears etc – what Judith shows here is by keeping life truly simple right to the end, everything needed is right there.

    I never get tired of watching this video. It is such a contrast to how some people pass over, in fear, loneliness, regret. Judith emanates joy from her beaming face. She has nothing to hide, no silly comforts to hang onto, you can feel that she is free.

    A wonderful reflection how we don’t need to be traumatised about terminal disease or mourn the death of our body, nor does not giving up on life mean fighting the process of dying.
    It is an opportunity to discard many ills physically, mentally and energetically – a wonderful gift that when embraced can support our own preparation for our next life, as well as offer huge inspiration and healing for all those we touch through our expression as so beautifully shown by this interview.

  • Reply Jennifer Smith December 31, 2017 at 10:53 am

    Judith McIntyre has left an indelible mark for me in terms of what is possible when we pass over. There is so much about how she was with herself that is not commonly experience with people who are dying. Judith herself commented on the difference in how she was with the 3 diagnoses she received. To receive the news that you are dying and to remain settled and ‘lovely’ says that she has such a deep connection to the quality of stillness she had been deepening, meant that nothing could shake or disturb that. This without doubt influenced the way in which she approached her dying and how she passed over.

  • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh December 27, 2017 at 9:47 pm

    People often want to leave something moumental behind as a sign that their life mattered, like a huge building or a breaking some record or a famous book. Yet as glamorous as such accomplishments may seem, there is nothing as valuable as paving the way for everyone to be more easily connected to their Soul, more aware and more able to express the love and the joy in their heart. The impression left by Judith McIntyre on everyone around her leading up to her passing over and her interview that has touched numerous lives, is such an example.

    “I think that people don’t realise… if you can be with each moment, let it unfold, every moment has got something to offer.”
    There is such beauty and wisdom in this sentence. It really offers so much, our lives are so generally dictated before us by our previous experience that to choose to be only with the moment and respond is a way to create new understandings and awarenesses and to stop ourselves from repeating old patterns.

    • Reply Jane March 14, 2018 at 6:14 pm

      I absolutely agree Leigh. How many moments in our lives do we waste by looking forward, looking back, or distracting, or numbing those moments for instance? When there is such grace in simply taking one moment and then the next without feeling the need to be anywhere else.

    “I’ve learned a great deal about how disease is actually a form of healing” What a shining example Judith is of her own words, she remains bright and aware and communicates with such clarity about dying that she’s shown how we can continue to offer everything to others, right to the end of a life.

    The physical body deteriorates and falls apart but that doesn’t mean that we can’t stay engaged with life up until our last breath. Life is after all about mastering life and not letting ourselves be mastered by it. It feels like acceptance and surrender become evermore important in our final days.

    “I’ve learned a great deal about how disease is actually a form of healing.” This completely turns everything we know about illness and disease on its head and the undeniable truth of this statement is clearly evidenced in the quality of Judith’s countenance here. How can anyone go through such a grueling disease with such grace if they have not totally understood and appreciated how much healing is arising from being so ill. There is much to be gained from Judith’s experience that in time will completely alter the way we look at ill health and how we address it.

    This is so beautiful to read. It is the inspiration of how to live truly and we can start anytime and it will never be too late, the love that we are surrounded by is enormous because this is who we are within us, when let out we will be reflected huge love back. Face every moment as it comes and this love gets to be expressed unreservedly, this is the true way to live, and this true way allows us to come to a deep understanding and acceptance of death. Connecting with ourselves is what we naturally know, if we are free from the limitations we set ourselves up in the process of seeking.

    There is a huge perception that humanity has been running with that youth, achievement, recognition and function of our body parts is crucial and what we have to strive for. There is so much demand on finding the next magic product or treatment that can deliver us these. Yet our bodies have a humbling way of showing us that this is not the way.

So much has come to me from watching this video about appreciating where I am in life now, all of which I had not been truly holding in appreciation. Judith is so inspiring, not because her body is dying but because of what she was choosing to live each day.

What I love about this that Judith was sharing ,was that she is in such appreciation of each moment that is on offer and welcoming whatever the next thing was that she needed; be it a wheel walker, wheel chair or hospital bed. Judith clearly had no regrets here. Even though Judith was dying, everything here was clearly about her living every moment.

    Hearing someone talk about their body feeling so alive and well, before they are about to die is incredible, I can relate to it though, because feeling alive is about how you live, not how long you have…many of us walk around in a way that is like sleep walking, one function activity to another, not really feeling why we are doing what we are doing, being present in the moment, is feeling alive.

    It is so inspiring to read that someone is committed to life until their last breath. Accepting everything very graciously along the way. This is not a regular occurrence with someone who is dying, so what is shared here is ground breaking for palliative care. The commitment of Judith and the dedication of her care team is a true footprint on how people can pass over with true dignity.

  • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh September 25, 2017 at 5:18 pm

    When somebody who is terminally ill, interviewed just days before they pass over can so deeply inspire you to reflect on the way you have been living and viewing life, you know what is being offered is far more than meets the eye.

    Here we are invited to reassess so many beliefs and expectations we have about life. Relationships, responsibility, appreciation, joy, illness, death for starters.

  • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh September 24, 2017 at 6:59 pm

    We tend to have pictures of what is required for us to have a joyful and fulfilling experience of life, one where we deeply appreciate and look forward to engaging with every moment before us. Judith McIntyre’s interview beautifully turns this all on its head.

    AMAZING just so incredibly amazing and so beautiful. This interview with Judith blows me away every time. She has given us an absolute gift and we have so much to learn from her. I could watch this again and again and again. What I was really aware of this time was how the room felt so still, with love and holding supporting Judith and also was she had given herself this space, something we can learn from to caring for all others. ‘The ease that life starts to take on as you really care for yourself first, which I had never done, was so precious.’ again something we can learn from.

  • Reply HM September 16, 2017 at 11:23 pm

    What an amazingly powerful interview for us all to hear. It delivers a whole new level of understanding about illness and disease. And this captures the love and power Universal Medicine can offer. So often we can leave this world with an illness feeling less or angry or hurt – but for someone to go from terror to self-love to excitement is unheard of. It shows there is another way and that all it takes is our choice of how much we want to understand and appreciate.

  • Reply Jennifer Smith September 15, 2017 at 5:05 am

    I keep coming back to Judith’s interview to see what is possible in palliative care. Judith is a bright shining light and a beautiful example of someone who lived every day every moment fully committed, even though she was limited in where she could go at that stage. She continued to develop and deepen her relationship with herself and her understanding of life. This interview and being present for her passing has been key for my understanding in working with those who are dying.

  • Reply Rebecca Wingrave September 10, 2017 at 4:55 am

    I love this, this is so wise; ‘if you can be with each moment, let it unfold, every moment has got something to offer’, at work lately I have had a feeling that I want things to be a certain way so I love letting go of this, allowing things to unfold and feeling joy rather than tension and anxiety.

    I have watched Judith’s interview several times and now just read the whole interview, and every time I am blown away from how surrendered and appreciative she is of what has unfolded for her through her experience. I am totally inspired by what she has shared in her interview and several blogs. It makes me stop and re-evaluate what I am doing and how I am doing it with so much more awareness.

  • Reply Lucy Dahill September 8, 2017 at 3:54 am

    Yes, to live knowing you don’t have issues or baggage because you have chosen to address them and not let anything be unimportant is inspiring, not just in preparation for passing over but for every moment we have on this plane of life.

  • Reply Lieke Campbell September 8, 2017 at 12:43 am

    I could not stop looking at Judith’s gorgeous and wide open eyes. The joy, appreciation and love she had for herself and life is amazing and very inspiring. She shows how we can easily make changes to our life if we are willing to just simply let go of all our old ways and allow God’s Love deeply in. No attachment to struggle or pain, just allowing joy, appreciation and ease.

  • Reply Lucy Dahill September 6, 2017 at 4:11 am

    I feel so humbled by watching this video by the simplicity of what Judith has shared. She is so real about her fear and what she has learnt from her diagnosis. The changes were to bring deep harmony into her movements and her way of being. What a difference to the doing on the outside and looking at the effect of acceptance coming from the inside. It is a perspective that has re-ordered mine.

    The value of being able to spend your last days supported by carers in your own home can’t be underestimated. It is something I personally would hold as one of the most valuable things in life. With ageing comes many challenges, and this type of loving support when there is a terminal illness is something everyone would agree is invaluable beyond measure.

    • Reply Jennifer Smith September 15, 2017 at 5:12 am

      I have to agree Heather and not only loving support for the person dying, but the support was their for everyone. Often carers are exhausted and tired and put the needs of the person and others first. But this was a great example of working together as a community to support the person yes but also the community.

      We often wonder why it is that only 15% of people actually get to die at home when 70%plus people would want to. It coming down to the support. If it takes a community to raise a child, its the same for people to die at home.

  • Reply Mary-Louise Myers September 4, 2017 at 4:26 pm

    This quote by Judith is gold “if you can be with each moment, let it unfold, every moment has got something to offer.” Being with the moment at hand, is the challenge, as often we have jumped to the next without fully being in the present, making the most of it and then allowing the next to unfold.

    • Reply Alexis Stewart January 6, 2019 at 5:23 pm

      Every moment contains a potential treasure chest and yet we resist and squander almost every moment by not allowing our bodies to simply surrender into the unfolding moment. We are nearly always either ‘on our way somewhere’, hanging out in the past or neck deep in emotion, either way the body is not able to simply just be in the moment as it reveals it’s treasures.

    I’ve read the interview and saw it a while ago, there is such a beautiful stillness, grace and joy to feel throughout this whole interview. Judith has left behind the truth of the process of dying, how we can heal until the last bit preparing for our next life.
    Another truth that touched me was this one ‘And of course, I mean, God would be simple. He wouldn’t make it hard for us. That’s what we people do.’

  • Reply Susie W September 1, 2017 at 3:51 pm

    Wow. Going through cancer and chemotherapy pain free is a miracle, let alone with this inspiring approach to life and to death that Judith had. It’s so inspiring to watch the healing and joy she experienced which you can feel from listening to and watching her in this video, and to know that death can be something very different to how it’s portrayed, thought of and approached in society today.

    I remember when I first saw this interview a few years ago – it stopped me in my tracks. On seeing Judith on her death bed filled with such joy I knew that what she was living must have had something to it. It was quite a stark contrast to another experience I’d had in caring for someone who was terminal ill – there was such fear, denial and sorrow and it was very painful to be a part of. To die in the way Judith showed us was what I wanted and I knew that it started with how I was living.

    This is a groundbreaking video, to witness someone with terminal cancer so committed to their daily life and so in the joy of life. Fully present in life even as the physical body is unable to participate to its fullest, Judith it would seem had a commitment to writing and contributing to life around her. It shouldn’t be underestimated how much of an inspiration such a person is to those around them, giving perspective to what really matters and living a realisation that it isn’t one life, there is preparation taking place for the next time around.

    • Reply Leonne August 29, 2017 at 8:26 am

    This interview is so inspiring. The fact that Judith McIntyre can be so clear, appreciative, joyful and empowered in her relationship to her body’s terminal disease, and the responsibility with which she considers and makes sense of everything is amazing. What strikes me is that most of us do not have such a rich relationship with our daily lives.

    Now from Judith’s own accounts, this is not what she started with. When she met Serge Benhayon her relationship with her life circumstances were quite different. This story is a wonderful testament to the profound impact of Serge Benhayon’s support and teaching, as well as the inspiring example Judith provided through her dedication and focus to use the opportunities offered by life to deepen, expand and evolve.

    • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh August 10, 2017 at 12:39 am

      Very true Kehinde. Often people panic when they come across a terminal disease whether it is in relationship to themselves or another loved one, some get depressed and give up. Some go opposite to this and decide to ‘fight’ the situation and rush around trying to find a way of beating the disease, and hoping for a miracle. Yet here we are offered a great opportunity to deepen our understanding and acceptance of life as well as passing over, health and the nature of illness, and wow the example of Judith McIntyre shows what a joyful experience this can be.

  • Reply Monica August 3, 2017 at 7:36 am

    What I feel reading today is an amazing joy and love and how no matter what is there we can be with it, Judith’s joy in the face of death is palpable, this is not words, but a deeply lived quality and it reminds me that each moment offers something if I’m wiling to surrender and see it, and this is something I can apply right now in my life. Thank you for sharing this amazing interview.

  • Reply Stephen Gammack July 30, 2017 at 7:37 am

    There are so many things we do for ourselves that we consider loving, like the example Judith gives of organic food. But really if there is not an acceptance of self then all these other practices mean nothing really. Our health is built through our self care, and Judith is a great example of someone who came to deeply accept herself and her situation. It is remarkable and yet also a measure of how to pass over, available to us all that is joyful and filled with a knowing of what is next.

    • Reply Kehinde James August 4, 2017 at 1:18 pm

    There is something truly precious in the level of understanding and settlement with passing over offered through Serge Benhayon’s presentations. It is not that the presentations are actually about death or dying itself, yet I find that I am constantly supported in deepening my awareness and relationship with life, which has so far resulted in a reclaiming of empowerment, joy and responsibility in so many areas of life including my relationship with passing over.

    There is a very clear and evident joy in Judith McIntyre that is rarely if ever seen in someone so riddled with cancer. This testimony is worthy of immense study because it is not going to be a ‘one off’.

    “The Esoteric Philosophy of Re-incarnation presents the fact that it is the energetic quality we pass over in that we will return to in our next life.” This is such an important teaching and to prepare for that is dependent upon how one has lived one’s life. Hence The Way of The Livingness is the way to live, as there is no better way to live and prepare for that passing.

    • Reply Vicky Cooke July 6, 2017 at 4:05 pm

      Yes and I feel this needs to be discussed and talked about far more than it currently is because if all of humanity had this aboslute awareness, that the energetic quality we live in this life is what we will come back to in our next, I am sure this will be a short, sharp wake-up call to many of us and that we do in fact not get away with anything!

    There are so many gems in this this interview. For example Judith’s share of a Serge Benhayon’s loving response to in their conversation about her upcoming mastectomy: ” ‘The soul doesn’t need the breast’… and it just opened up my perspective. I was only thinking of my loss… but I thought, ‘At least I’ve got my life.’ ” and then later offering us the sense that this ongoing ‘life’ is not something that is lost when we pass over.
    The change of perspective this invites in the way we relate to our issues in life, is huge.

  • Reply Stephen Gammack June 30, 2017 at 2:09 pm

    A key aspect of our re framing how we view life and how we take more responsibility for humanity is found in our relationship with death and passing away. It is ultimately an individual’s decision to what they make of reincarnation, but certainly there is worth in living to the last full of joy, regardless of ones beliefs. Coming back or not where is the point in being moribund, a talk I give to myself in these moments, as life is not just to be grasped at the end, but lived in full in every moment.

  • Reply Liane Mandalis June 30, 2017 at 6:32 am

    The sparkle, the joy, the love in Judith’s eyes that emanates through her whole body even though it is going through a process of discarding, helps to re-instil in us the truth of passing over – that there lives within us an eternal light and love that cannot ever be extinguished but only grows brighter through the permission we give it, ourselves, to shine. The incredible way Judith McIntyre embraced her ‘death’ is a total inspiration for us all and in this helps us to see and feel the absolute lies we have been fed about death and passing over. This is important in light of the truth that the energetic quality we pass over in is the same quality with which we will reincarnate in, for it helps us free ourselves from a vicious cycle of fear and misery we unwittingly incarcerate ourselves in within the greater cycle of life and all that it offers for us to re-turn to the truth of who we are.

Huge appreciation for the immense inspiration offered by Serge Benhayon that infuses life with love, harmony, joy and a deep understanding of the vastness that we are an eternal part of.

    And what a blessing when people like Judith McIntyre choose to adopt such wisdom in their lives and share the ordinary extra-ordinariness of it all, so that the rest of us can be also inspired.

      It reminds us that we have a choice as to whether we ‘fall into the arms of death’ asleep or truly awakened.

        Liane what you have expressed here is vey powerful and has the ability to break very old and ill dogmas and consciousness around death and dying. A great question to ask ourselves

    There is so much within this that is absolutely incredible gold. I can feel in reading this how it is a message available for the whole world, not just anyone with disease or illness, but for any of us with any ounce of struggle in their lives. If I let any misery in I can refer to what is being shared and taught here in this blog and interview, how every moment is an offering and to spend any moment blaming another or a situation is a moment wasted and deviating from the truth on offer that we can learn and heal and grow in our every breath.

    • Reply Jonathan Stewart June 25, 2017 at 2:24 pm

      Beautifully expressed, Stephen. There is so much here from which to learn and be inspired by.

  • Reply Jonathan Stewart June 25, 2017 at 5:32 am

    One thing that every single person is certain of in life is that we die. However, as this remarkable interview shares, death does not have to traumour but in fact a joyous experience with life lived to the full to the very last breath.

    How refreshing to read/watch an interview where there is no agenda, just a presentation of a beautiful woman life and death.

  • Reply Carmel Reid June 24, 2017 at 7:55 pm

    This is deeply inspiring – such a beautiful way to approach any illness – accepting what is happening each day with such joy.

    ‘The body will die but I feel so alive” A beautiful understanding and acceptance of the human and the being within every human being.

  • Reply Kerstin Salzer June 23, 2017 at 5:12 pm

    I am very touched by Judiths love and her process of accepting everything which comes towards her. Her experience is one not being experienced by a lot to have fun to dy because of accepting the process she is going through in full but not give up on love and joy.

  • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh June 23, 2017 at 4:16 pm

    This is the most glorious story, healing on so many levels. It is offering great understanding and awareness to the possibilities of embracing the session of illness and disease; maintaining joy, clarity and purpose right to the last breath; the community coming together as a family to take care of whoever requires it; the potential of palliative care to truly support people and so much more. A true blessing. Thank you.

  • Reply Mary June 22, 2017 at 4:36 pm

    These are just for me such profound words
    “But I have such a different perspective. I feel like I could have died without learning what was really happening, what life’s really about, and I didn’t miss it… just in time!”
    I know from my body I have lived several life’s without being aware of the greater world surrounding me . I am only just waking up to the possibility that there is so much more to life that we are all missing out on. I have seen life as a flat line birth to death, but actually it is so much more than this our lives are spherical and encompasses everything so it cannot be linear.

  • Reply Stephanie Stevenson June 22, 2017 at 6:30 am

    I love watching this video again – Judith’s joy lives on for all to enjoy and know there is another way to prepare for death and dying. Thank God for Serge Benhayon and this new model of palliative care that he has been sharing.

  • Reply Michael Brown June 22, 2017 at 12:12 am

    It is such a joy to read these words, and all of the wisdom that comes through them.

  • Reply Rachael Evans June 21, 2017 at 9:14 am

    This is not the first time I’ve watched this interview – and it will not be the last. What Judith is reflecting is a point of difference that is so real, refreshing and inspiring to receive. The level of acceptance and surrender in her diseased body is palpable and offers a way to deeply be at ease with yourself in any circumstance.

    • Reply Vicky Cooke July 27, 2017 at 5:51 am

      This is something to be shared with the world .. that is for sure ✨

  • Reply julie Matson June 20, 2017 at 4:17 pm

    It is such a joy to watch this video again and to see that the transcript is there for all to see. Watching this did bring a little tear and a lot of smiles as Judith’s joy is infectious, and gorgeous to watch. Also sadness with regards to my own mother’s experience of cancer and death, which was so far removed from what Judith has described and experienced.

  • Reply Leigh Matson June 20, 2017 at 3:45 pm

    I am left speechless after this. The depth of appreciating and accepting life as it comes has me sitting here very humbled that such is possible. Why wait till the end of our lives to live in such a way?

  • Reply Andrew Mooney June 20, 2017 at 2:24 pm

    What an amazing story and a complete turn-around from how people usually cope with cancer and dying. Fascinating that Judith states that she actually felt better and more at ease in herself when she got the third and most serious prognosis from her doctor! This shows that we are far more than a physical body and the health and wellness of her being was constantly developing and deepening and expanding even though her physical body was deteriorating.

    • Reply Natallija July 11, 2017 at 10:28 am

      This blog is a testament of the quality we can all pass over if we are willing to be open and loving to ourselves. For Judith to feel more at ease as the condition became more life threatening is something I have never heard of before. This inspiring piece of writing is a beautiful refection of letting go and allowing ourselves to deepen our quality of love is the greatest responsibility of dying.

  • Reply Deidre Medbury June 20, 2017 at 8:14 am

    Having met Judith and spent a little time with her, feeling the love and joy that came from within her in her last weeks and since then having listened to and read this interview a few times and with each and every time I learn more and am so in immensely inspired in how Judith embraced the dying process as a wonderful pathway into her next re-incarnation.

  • Reply Vicky Cooke June 20, 2017 at 6:55 am

    I could watch this over and over again. This is such a remarkable and stunning interview and Judith McIntyre is a truly inspiring and remarkable woman. She has shared so much with humanity here and there is so much for us to learn through just listening and observing her in this interview. As are these words something to deeply ponder on ‘As you meet what comes before you with what is within you, you develop an awareness that what is before you was sent to bring out what is within you’. ~ Serge Benhayon. I felt exactly the same as Judith when I came to Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine ‘this is it!’. ‘Of course God would be simple .. he wouldn’t make it hard for us .. that is what we people do.’ Judith McIntyre ?

  • Reply Sarah Flenley June 20, 2017 at 5:46 am

    So much joy in this transcript, and so much joy in the sharing of an end of life. It is an absolute miracle as so different to what many people experience with death.

    I was struck by much but particularly this line today – “I practised the gentle breath meditation… and learned how to be with me”.

    So simple yet so elusive for many of us – how to be with ourselves. The gentle breath meditation is an easy and simple way to start the process. http://www.unimedliving.com/meditation/free/meditation-for-beginners/introductory-gentle-breath-meditation.html

    • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh August 5, 2017 at 1:19 am

      That is a gorgeous observation Sarah. We tend to fret so much about life (and death) trying to make sense of things and control it all. But could the answer be as simple as just learning how to be connected and be with ourselves? Judith McIntyre’s interview and what you have picked up gives us a big clue.

  • Reply Harrison White June 20, 2017 at 5:33 am

    Gorgeous sharing, I am so glad this is documented and will be here for a long time, the inauguration of a new model of dying.

  • Reply Christine Hogan June 20, 2017 at 5:02 am

    Reading this interview brings so much joy and appreciation of the choices we have and the confirmation that we know ‘Truth’. This confirms all that Serge Benhayon is living and is sharing with us through his reflection and his words. We choose the degree to which we live love, are love and share love. We have it all at our finger tips and are so blessed. Thank you for sharing this interview.

    • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh January 15, 2018 at 8:43 pm

      A sobering reminder. Yes we have free choice. We can choose “the degree to which we live love, are love and share love” and this has a very clear tangible impact on the quality of our own life and all others.

  • Reply Jeanette June 19, 2017 at 5:13 pm

    A deeply beautiful video. I felt like I couldn’t help but smile and celebrate Judiths life and her understanding about death with her, her wonder and joy were so palpable.

  • Reply Nicola Lessing June 19, 2017 at 5:03 pm

    Thank you for sharing this. I visited Judith a couple of time close to her passing and I can confirm that she was overflowing with Joy. The way Judith handled her final weeks and days was incredibly inspiring, glorious and deeply touching. It has left a last impression on me.

    • Reply Nicola Lessing June 19, 2017 at 5:07 pm

      I might add that not only was Judith awesome, but also the whole team of carers and friends who supported her. It was a wonderful example of a whole new loving and healthy way to handle life and death.

    • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh June 22, 2017 at 4:18 am

      I completely agree with you Nicola. Although I did not personally see the whole team in action, just reading about the exquisite way the whole team came together with such love, care, togetherness, responsibility and honouring of one another is inspiring beyond words. It is a perfect example whether in palliative care or in fact any other area of society.

      • Reply Jonathan Stewart June 27, 2017 at 2:18 pm

        So true Golnaz & Nicola. The model of care shown here is an inspirational one that once reproduced will in time revolutionise the care of not only the dying but the whole of society.

  • Reply Monica June 19, 2017 at 5:02 pm

    Wow, to feel the deep level of love, acceptance and joy in Judith before her passing is awe inspiring – it reminds me no matter how things look on the outside, it’s the quality inside that is it, and I can feel how Judith absolutely nurtured that quality, and the results speak for themselves. Such love, deeply embraced and offered to all. Thank you for sharing this, it’s so important to understand and know that every single moment counts to the last breath and that no matter our circumstances it can be with joy.

    • Reply Rowena Stewart November 15, 2017 at 3:31 pm

      Agreed Monica. What a show stopping example this is to the world of how we can be dying but still connect to the most amazing love within us and what our true responsibility is in this world, to remain connected to this love to our very last breath. The depth of care from Serge Benhayon and a remarkable team of people demonstrates just how much can be achieved when we all work with this same intention, to keep love present and alive within us in all we do.

  • Reply vanessa mchardy June 19, 2017 at 4:44 pm

    So deeply inspired by Judith, there is so much to take in from what she shares in this video and all her writings, it is immensely humbling to see life lived this way in the face of death with our current take on what death is experienced as, but Judith lives and dies in a way that is so true and joyful it is magnificent and simple! It is like she said simple – God would be simple ! I love that.

    • Reply Vicky Cooke September 2, 2017 at 6:30 am

      I agree Vanessa deeply inspiring and immensely humbling .. Judith looks far more healthier and joy-full than most of us who haven’t got a terminal illness! There is soooo much for us to learn from here. I am so glad this was documented.

  • Reply Golnaz Shariatzadeh June 19, 2017 at 4:04 pm

    What a fabulously inspiring interview. Thank you for offering it in writing as well as the delightful video. The joy, vitality and wisdom with which Judith McIntyre shares about her experiences of preparing to die offers profound insights. Revelations not just about dying, but also about how we could be choosing to live life.
