I am most grateful to God for leading me into Christian Science, and to a cousin who so kindly gave me a copy of the Sentinel, which brought me the first light of this Science, the most wonderful thing that ever came into my life.
About thirteen years ago my family was making preparations to send me to a large hospital in a near-by city where there were facilities for the treatment prescribed for me by the family physician. I wanted very much to have Christian Science treatment, but my family believed it unwise to trust an incurable condition to Science. However, I prayed that God would make a way for me to send my message to a practitioner, although I was unable to get out of bed and the family would not deliver my message. I knew that "desire is prayer," as our beloved Leader, Mary Baker Eddy, says on page I of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures."
One day a dear friend called on me. She had been informed on a previous visit that no one could see me because of my weakened condition. But after a talk with my daughter, she was finally admitted to my room. I did not feel the least bit surprised to see her, and when I told her my desire, she delivered my message to the practitioner.
