It was the instability of matter which I perceived and my ever-growing unrest in all material pursuits that finally turned me to an earnest study of Christian Science. But even before I knew it was Science that I needed, my older son, then a baby three years old. began to suffer from asthma, according to a doctor's diagnosis. Each attack was more alarming than the last, until I decided that there was only one thing which would heal him and that was Christian Science.

Many years before that my mother had been healed of hay fever through this treatment, and as a consequence I was enrolled in a Christian Science Sunday School. which I attended until I reached the age limit. Soon after that I moved away and almost forgot what I had been taught of the truth.

The seed had been sown, however, and in my extremity I reached out to God, and the answer came—Christian Science. I was thoroughly convinced of its power and efficacy to heal. I went to a practitioner, treatment was begun, and I started to study the Bible and Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy.
