Her visions have helped solve crimes; her instincts have helped find missing people; she can predict future events and sense your thoughts. These are some of the extraordinary gifts that define the remarkable Allison DuBois, the real-life medium, wife, and mother whose life is the inspiration for the hit NBC television series Medium.

When she was six years old, Allison's deceased great-grandfather came to her with a message for her mother: "I am okay, I am still with you. Tell your mom there's no pain." Allison shared his comforting words with her mother and thus began a lifetime of creating connections between loved ones and those they have lost. The purpose of her gifts became clear when Allison worked as an intern in the homicide bureau of the district attorney's office and found that she visualized the crime as she handled the evidence. Allison now works as a profiler on criminal investigations.

In this stunning audiobook, Allison shares fascinating stories of her encounters with people who have passed and her adventures as a profiler for various law enforcement organizations. With wit and compassion, Allison shows us what it is like to live with these special gifts and talents and also tells about her struggle to live a normal life as a devoted wife and mother.

If you have ever questioned whether there is an afterlife, this audiobook will help you see that there is a living energy beyond death.

People are commenting about the narration - yes Allison has a monotone voice, but who cares? She finds missing people and has devoted her life to helping people she has devoted her life to reliving awful moments in order to help others.

Not to mention once she passes everyone will wish there was more of her voice, so please.

Allison is amazing and this book is fantastic.

Amazing woman amazing book!

It was an opportunity to hear about how a child, with this special gift, grows up. I enjoyed the comments from her husband.

I really enjoyed the audio book.

I, like many other people, had never heard of Allison DuBois before 'Medium' hit the airwaves. When I saw the premier, I was already addicted. Finding she not only has one books out, BUT TWO, and is currently working on a third, I knew I had to read them.

I have always been intrigued by tales of communicating with the other side, whether good or bad. As a child I swore I had a family living in my bedroom, but my parents passed it off as my imagination. In my adult years, I've learned that children are highly succeptable to premonitions and 'visitors,' and parents/adults blow them off...causing the children to become closed to those things. Allison only confirmed that for me.

In 'Don't Kiss Them Good-Bye,' we get a peek into Allison's life as a Medium, and some of her readings. We don't stop to think about all aspects of this gift...Allison helps us to understand that. Such as, at what point do you draw the line between being a Medium and being a daughter or friend? Can you be both at the same time?!

I recommend this to anyone who has ever taken an interest in this topic...however, there are parts where Allison seems a little monotone.

Intriguing insight to the medium mind

Allison gives us information which settles many questions about those feelings we call intuition, huntches, and 'just knowing' the unexplainable. She's a compassionate being with the heart of helping and her work is facinating as well as comforting. I personally could relate to many of the examples and it encourages me to trust my instincts even more.
It is NOT an occult frenzy of ghosts, but enlightens the other side. Light and love flow from her reading.
I would encourage anyone who is grieving over someone who has passed to listen to this. She should be blessed for her honesty and I pray God continues to guide her with stregnth and clarity.

I've watched the TV show and was interested to learn what the real story is behind Alison Dubois. This book is read by the author and her husband and in this case I think they should have had someone else read it. Once I got past the cadence of the reader, I found the story itself fairly interesting.

Some people complain about Allison’s tone, but if you can just listen to what she’s saying instead of how she is saying it then I believe you can enjoy this book as much as I have.

A great read

This audio book is filled with answers to the mysteries experienced by mediums that see the dead in the flesh. While this idea terrifies me and makes me question my own beliefs it makes my understanding of her experience clear. I believe that Allison really sees the things she conveys because her telling is so straightforward.

Allison Dubois is a real person, she is unpolished and unpretentious and this audio book clearly highlights her naivete in the world of voice acting. There are numerous negative criticisms about the amateurish quality of Allison’s reading of this book and while I can agree in most instances, even most nonfiction, in this case I love Allison’s honest reading of this memoir. Why would you want to listen to this book after knowing these glaring observations?

Many psychics are showmen and little more and they rely on their ability to capture their audience’s attention with slick and flashy presentations. Allison I suspect has had little experience in the limelight and as a result this audio book sounds very much like a telephone conversation. Which I personally welcome because I want to know who Allison Dubois is and what the world she lives in feels like. Allison exudes emotion and unconsciously unveils herself for all who listen to the telling of her life.

I wasn't sure I would like this book, but is was good. It wasn't great, but I am glad I read it. My one big problem with the book is Allison DuBois' voice. I think she would have been better off having someone else read it. She brings a somewhat sarcastic tone to the book and I didn't really enjoy that.

I liked it.

I only read this book because I enjoy the television show. I frankly see the entire practice of being a medium as an area where deception has historically been a part of the practice, since people always desire final or additional communication. History has provided these examples throughout the ages. Although this sounds negative, I do know there are times the veil separating death and life can thin and communication does occur.

Although some complain regarding her reading her work, I find this only required a bit of adjustment to her style. She comes across as very sincere in how she defines her gifts and guides. This part felt influenced by how other mediums define themselves, so I wonder if her definition of how she interprets her gifts will grow as her definition of life grows. All in all, a positive read.

Interesting, ask yourself what you expect?
