We have had many proofs of the practicality of Christian Science in our family. We have relied upon it completely to rear our children, and I could fill pages with marvelous proofs of God's care for us in the form of healing and protection from harm. I should particularly like to share an experience in which a medical prediction was disproved.

Our small daughter caught her large toe in the sprocket wheel of a bicycle and severed the toe just above the upper joint. A practitioner was called immediately and help was received. Later we felt that a professional dressing on the wound was desirable, and the child was taken to the emergency hospital. There the doctor stated positively that a healing was impossible without surgery and immunization to avoid a dangerous infection. We were unwilling to subject the child to this procedure; so we signed a release from the hospital and took the little girl home with just the dressing on the wounded toe.
