Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy quotes the saying (p. 266) "man's extremity is God's opportunity." This was proved true in our family, for Christian Science came to us when we were in desperate need. Our son, then three years old, developed a skin disease that eventually covered his entire body. After months of medical treatment our family physician and specialists agreed there was nothing more they could do for our son.

At this time a friend who was not a Christian Scientist but had read Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy suggested we try Christian Science. A Christian Science practitioner was called. He agreed to pray for our son. Within one week the boy was completely healed.

While we were deeply grateful for this healing, we did not turn to Science completely until after the healing of our daughter. When she was six months old she had a very high fever for a few days. The doctor who was called couldn't find a cause for the fever, but he wanted to do exploratory surgery and made arrangements to do this in two days. In the meantime my wife and I decided to turn to Christian Science for help through prayer. Our daughter was quickly and completely healed.
