Adieu Hubert | Deborah King discusses the spiritual resurgence that can come towards end of life

I first met my future father-in-law, Hubert, at 6:00 a.m. one beautiful July morning nearly 40 years ago when Eric, my new French boyfriend, and I arrived by train in Grenoble, France. The gallant Hubert, dapper in a three piece suit, tie and tennis shoes (I later discovered this was somewhat of a uniform), met us there. We had foolishly hopped the train in the late afternoon the day before in Paris without securing proper seats and ended up sitting in the aisle on our suitcases all night. This particular train, the "milk run," had stopped at every nook and cranny as it meandered along its way into the heart of the French Alps.

A man of education and culture, oddly enough, Hubert spoke not one word of English. I, on the other hand, spoke not one word of French and was discovering just how unhandy that was. Hubert, always courtly, bowed, kissed my hand in the old-fashioned French tradition, and immediately stole his way into my heart.

Before undergoing invasive surgery, she turned to alternative medicine and experienced an amazing remission at the hands of a healer.

Leaving the corporate arena for the tantalizing world of healers, sages, and shamans, Deborah studied ancient and modern healing systems, traveling far and wide to meet with extraordinary practitioners of energy medicine. ?

Her first book, the national bestseller Truth Heals: What You Hide Can Hurt You, explores the powerful relationship between the suppression of painful emotions and their impact on our health and happiness. ?
