I am learning through the study and application of Christian Science to know God—God who is Love; and as I strive to correct erroneous thoughts—to overcome hatred, resentment, and fear—I experience happiness, peace, and good health, and realize that these are permanent.

Over nine years ago I was bedridden for two months, after submitting to an operation which seemed to make conditions worse instead of better. The physicians consulted said they could do no more to help me. I knew nothing of Christian Science, but, having heard that it healed, I asked a practitioner for help and was healed instantaneously. I am so thankful and happy to know that health is spiritual and not dependent on material conditions.

I want to tell of the healing of an internal injury which my son experienced four years ago. The boy, then seven years old, fell some distance, landing on his side on a rock. He complained at the time of the fall, but was able to go to school for a few days. Suddenly he became very ill. There was high fever, blood passed, and there was much swelling and discoloration in his side and down the leg to the knee. He suffered a great deal, the leg drew up, and he could not stand erect. A Christian Science practitioner worked for the child, but the condition continued for five weeks. I spent by far the greater part of my time studying the Bible and the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and I protected the child from the eyes of other members of the family.
