Spine fracture healed

Brooks Rakos

I would like to share the healing I experienced several months ago.  

After I was invited to the home of a dear co-worker for their orthodox Easter dinner and celebration, I was traveling back to my apartment when I had a car wreck. Someone behind me failed to brake as I was stopped at a stop sign off the ramp of a main interstate highway.  

That evening I was in terrible pain and went to the emergency room (ER) of the hospital where I am an employee. The first X-ray showed what is called a compressed fracture of a vertebra in my spine. At the ER I gently told them I was a Christian Scientist and did not want the procedures of blood pressure, temperature, etc. done. I did submit to taking one pain pill to lull the pain, so I could focus my thought and prayer on the healing of the injury. I then realized the material drug was not the cause of a cessation of the pain. Because I had uplifted my thought to the one divine Mind, divine Love, and was focusing only on what is real, the pain was not there! I did not need to have that pill.
