She revealed how her father Alistair brushes her hair.

Deborah James congratulated her father one last time on Father's Day. She showed how Alistair carefully brushes her hair as she has no energy to do so because of her terminal illness.

Many might have thought it wasn't just a family photo, but a heartbreaking cry of pain. However, Deborah, who is dying of incurable colon cancer, has not lost heart or fallen into despondency. She has even given several interviews in which she admits that it's hard for her to celebrate the holidays, knowing it will be her last.
