This is the very moving diary Isabelle Filliozat kept as she accompanied her husband, who was diagnosed with a brain tumour, through to the end of his life. For the first time, the famous psychotherapist reveals a part of her personal life.

Jean-Bernard Fried, Isabelle Filliozat's husband, was struck by a severe headache on April 20th, 2018. No one suspected at the time that a glioblastoma, an extremely aggressive brain tumour, was taking over his brain and that it would progressively deprive him of his memory, speech and movement.
Isabelle Filliozat confronts the months that follow hand in hand with her husband. Using all her experience in emotional therapy and empathy, she urges him to express himself, to repair what needed repairing Jean-Bernard is able to reconcile at last with his father, to express thoughts that have been hidden for years.
In her global approach to illness, she carefully monitors his diet and attempts alternative methods of healing to counteract the misjudgements in hospital care, relying on Buddhism, meditation and prayer. She is profoundly convinced that positive forces can work in their favour and they must be trusted. A journey to Brazil for a cure will be decisive in rallying the entire family around Jean-Bernard. Isabelle and Bernard's two adult children will be by her side offering moral and physical support throughout their father's illness.

This is the story of a struggle, a union, an adventure and a certain peace. It is above all the story of a boundless love.


Isabelle Filliozat created the concept of positive parenting, based on her research combining the fields of neuroscience and emotion. Unanimously recognized for her work, she was awarded the position of Vice-President of the Commission for a Child's First 1000 Days by Emmanuel Macron.
