Doris hesitated about writing because she feared her stories would not be believed, or that, if believed, that she would be considered to be irreverent. But she undertook the project so that those who sorrowed for their departed loved ones might find comfort.Doris did not develop her mediumistic powers until she was of “quite mature years,” although she was always interested in psychic subjects. The death of her brother when she was nine years old left a deep impression on her; she grieved considerably for him. Later her sister died, and she would dream about this sister who was, “yet brighter, prettier, and more loving than ever.” After what seems to be a near-death experience under anesthesia, her abilities began to blossom. Following a second Near death experience her gifts began to operate in earnest. It was at this time that both Doris and her husband Hilary became clairvoyant and clairaudient.Small 8vo 136pp First Edition 1st Impression [1936]
