Singer Jewel, born Jewel Kilcher, recalls being homeless and nearly dying in an emergency room parking lot when a doctor saved her life by handing her antibiotics and his business card. She shared this in a 2023 interview on the PBS program, which recently resurfaced on Instagram. The singer-songwriter opened up about her youth and being raised by an abusive father, Atz, who served in the Vietnam war and had severe PTSD. In adulthood, she reconciled with her father after he embarked on a journey toward healing in his 60s.
