Over six years ago a member of my family was suffering with dizziness at frequent intervals, and he would often stagger and fall. We applied the truth to the best of our ability, and while he obtained some relief, the difficulty nevertheless came back every two weeks or so. This went on for a period of about six months.

At this time it was brought to my attention that people of his age, according to medical theory, suffer from what is called hardening of the arteries. After this, while I was trying to see him as he really is—the offspring, or reflection, of God—the thought came that the life-giving spiritual ideas of divine Mind, perfect Principle, unfailing Truth and Love, constantly given to him from God, can be made manifest only in that which is harmonious, spiritual, and perfect. He was healed, and we all rejoiced over it.

A few days later he did some work, which proved his freedom and brought further rejoicing. Using an eighteen-foot ladder, he climbed up a tree to twenty-five feet above the ground. Balancing himself on one branch, he cut off other branches with a rip-saw in order to make the kitchen lighter. He did this all day, which proved to me that the difficulty had been completely overcome.
