In the Preface to Science and Health...

Phyllis F. Nimmo

In the Preface to Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, we find these words (p. vii): "To those leaning on the sustaining infinite, to-day is big with blessings." I have proved the truth of this statement many times in the past twenty years and more, during which I have relied entirely on Christian Science, and it has brought healings of sickness, grief, and lack.

I should like to tell of the experience of our son when he broke his arm at the shoulder in two places. My husband and I were out of town at the time; so the boy was taken to a hospital by a neighbor, and the arm was set. When my husband and I returned, we talked with the two physicians who had had charge of the case and were told that the arm could not be properly set because of the nature of the break. X-ray pictures confirmed this verdict. We were also told that the boy would never be able to raise the arm above his head. We brought the child home, turned completely away from all sense testimony, and asked the help of a Christian Science practitioner. Within a month the boy was completely free from all limitations. Later he participated in basketball and track at college, and he saw active service in Italy during World War II.

Our daughter was healed of migraine headaches, which caused her to lose six months at school. She was also healed of rheumatic fever in five days, and this experience has been without any aftereffects.
