Odilia, born blind, was abandoned by her Duke father, Etichon, and raised by a peasant family. When she was baptized she regained her eyesight, so her brother brought her back home. Etichon was enraged by her home coming and accidentally killed her brother. Odilia resurrected him and left home again. Etichon eventually fell ill and Odilia came home to nurse him back to health. Upon his healing, they founded the Augustine monastic community of Mont Sainte-Odile, where she became abbess until her death and temporary resurrection.
