When twelve years of age I was afflicted with lameness,...
When twelve years of age I was afflicted with lameness, brought about by scarlet fever. It was necessary for my mother to carry me up and down stairs. After I had been in this condition a few months a Christian Science practitioner, who lived next door, came to see me and treated me for two weeks, after which I was able to walk.
Christian Science did not come into my experience again until seven years later, when I had a slow fever, lasting for nine weeks. At first a doctor was called, who said that I would not be able to go to work for some time. Receiving no benefit from his treatment and becoming discouraged, I went to the home of the same practitioner who had helped me before. She advised me to study "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. She read some Christian Science lectures to me and some other Christian Science literature, and through her loving help I was able to return to work in two weeks.
On another occasion I was healed in two days of dogwood poisoning. This condition seemed real at the time, because my face and hands were swollen to twice their normal size. After this experience I attended the Christian Science Sunday School for a year, and I can never be grateful enough for the help and spiritual uplift which I received there.
