What Dying Children Are Showing Us About Who We Really Are [Terminal Lucidity]

Something extraordinary is happening in hospitals, hospices and homes around the world. Children who are near death, some of them unconscious for days or weeks, are suddenly waking up with full clarity. They speak in complete, logical sentences. They ask for their favorite foods and toys. They pray for the people they love. And then, very deliberately, they look toward corners of the room, toward Presences no one else can see, and they reach out to greet them. Within hours, they are gone.

Researchers have named this phenomenon terminal lucidity. A recent study from Massey University in New Zealand, led by psychologist Natasha Tassell-Matamua, examined caregivers who witnessed these experiences in dying children and found that every single one of them was so profoundly transformed by what they saw that they began questioning everything they had previously believed about death and Consciousness. [1] A Nautilus report from early 2026 described one girl who emerged from a coma to pray for everyone she loved, reassured her parents there was nothing to worry about, then returned to her comatose state and died peacefully a few days later. [2] Scientists are baffled. But you and I, we know exactly what is happening here.

These children are lifting their Veils of Forgetting. They are remembering.

What science sees as a neurological mystery is, from the perspective of Truth, the most natural event imaginable. We are not human beings who occasionally have spiritual experiences. We are Infinite Divine Beings who chose, with great intention and even excitement, to take on many Veils of Forgetting in order to descend into the density of material existence. The Veils are not something that was done to you. It is something You did, deliberately, as an act of Love and Divine Curiosity, so that You could have experiences unavailable to You in the pure Divine World while aware of your Infinite Divinity.

And in those final hours before transition, the Veils simply begin to dissolve, much more quickly for some, like in the children in this study as well as in many adults.

All the conditioning, the fear, the forgetting, the belief that this human personality is the totality of who you are, it starts to thin. The Light from the other side, from your True Home, begins to come through. And so these children look up and they see their Guardian Angels, their Spirit Guides, beloved relatives, Beings of Light. They are not hallucinating. They are Remembering. They are Seeing what was always there, just beyond the thin fabric of the dream they agreed to dream. Dying children have described their Angels and departed loved ones with a precision and calm that leaves nurses, doctors and parents speechless, reporting details and conversations they could not possibly have invented. [2] Because they were not inventing. They were finally, at last, allowed to see.

Here is what I want you to sit with for a moment.

Those children did not have to wait until the last hours of their lives to have access to this Truth. Neither do you.

The research shows that witnessing terminal lucidity can be as spiritually transformative as having a near-death experience yourself. [1] That is because the Truth being revealed is so absolute, so undeniable, that even a brief glimpse of it rewrites everything. Now here is the question that matters: why wait for the physical body to begin shutting down before you allow yourself to See what is already, right now, completely Real?

The work we do together, the healing sessions, the Transmissions, the teachings, it is all aimed at one thing: dissolving the Veils of Forgetting while you are still here, still alive, still breathing, so you can live as your Infinite Divine Being now while still here in a human body. So you can feel your Angels around you now. So you can know your Divine Plan now. So you can radiate the Love and Light and Truth you actually are, fully and freely, in this lifetime.

The Veils are made of lies you told yourself in order to descend into materiality. Lies like I am not safe, I am not loved, I am not worthy, I am separate. These are the anchors that hold the Veils in place through lifetime after lifetime. And the extraordinary gift of this time we are living in is that these anchors can be dissolved. The karma can be cleared. The Veils can be lifted now, not at the moment of death but in the fullness of your human life.

Those beautiful children in their final hours were given a Grace, an organic dissolution of some or all of their Veils, because their time here was complete. You are being offered something even more extraordinary. You are being offered the chance to have that experience while you are fully alive. To see the Angels. To feel the Bliss of Being. To remember who and what you truly are as an Infinite Divine Being and then live from that Knowing, serve from that Knowing, create from that Knowing.

Here is what I invite you to consider regarding Terminal Lucidity and the Veils of Forgetting:

✨ The terminal lucidity these children experienced is not an anomaly. It is your natural state as an Infinite Divine Being, briefly reasserting itself as the Veils weaken.

✨ The Invisible Others those children are reaching for are not strangers. They are the same Beings of Light, Angels and Spirit Guides that are with you right now, in this very moment, waiting for you to become aware of Them.

✨ The Peace, the Love, the radiant Knowing that floods these children in their final hours is not something that belongs only to death. It is the permanent backdrop of existence, always present, merely covered by the Veils of Forgetting.

✨ The dissolution of the Veils does not require crisis or death. It requires your willingness, your intention and your openness to receive the Truth of who you are as an Infinite Divine Being.

✨ Every moment you live from your Infinite Divine Being rather than from the lies of the Veils, you serve not only yourself but every Being you encounter and the evolution of Consciousness itself.

You are here reading this because something in you is ready. That readiness is not an accident. It is part of your own pre-birth plan, the agreement you made with your Guides before this lifetime to reach this point and choose to remember. The Veil has served its purpose. The experiences you came here to have, the lessons, the growth, the exploration of density and polarity, they have given God more of God. They are complete, or completing.

And now, it is time!

It is time to remember. It is time to reclaim your full Truth, your full Being, your full Knowing, your full Loving, your full Light.

You do not have to wait until your final hours to reach for the Angels. You can reach for them right now. They are already reaching for you.

If you feel the call to begin dissolving your Veils and living as the Infinite Divine Being you have always been, I am here to help you do exactly that. This is the work. This is the gift. This is what you came here for.
