I was run over by a truck, and error tried to tell me that I was going to die. My shoulder was broken, ribs broken, spine injured, and lungs crushed. I however declared that man is spiritual and not material, and that there are no broken bones in Spirit; and I seemed to realize very clearly that error had no power over me, and that I had not received life of matter, nor could it take life from me. I was taken to the hospital, but did not receive any medical care of any kind, for I relied wholly upon divine Mind for every need; and at the end of three days I returned home and was able to be up and around every day, doing most of my housework and caring for my three children. At the end of ten days I was healed. I should like to add that I was without pain during this time. The doctor said that I would have to remain in the hospital for six weeks, but I declared that the care of the one Mind would be with me at home—and it was.

I have never been troubled since, and this happened almost four years ago. I am certainly grateful for Christian Science, and for what it has done for me during the past seven years.
