I became interested in Christian Science after witnessing the healing of my mother of a broken rib. There was no Christian Science practitioner near; so my mother wrote to one she knew in a distant city. The very hour that the letter reached the practitioner, the healing was accomplished. One thing that attracted my attention and astounded me was the power of prayer, even though the practitioner giving treatment lived a considerable distance away.

Many years later, when my husband and I had children of our own, one of our sons developed a severe case of whooping cough. I thought of my mother's healing and called a practitioner. Our son was completely healed overnight. Through much study following this healing, it unfolded to me that God is the only Father-Mother. As a result I was able to release our son from the fears of his human parents.

In rearing five children in the ensuing years, we have had many proofs of God's power to heal. Colds, measles, pneumonia, fevers, effects of ivy poisoning, all have been overcome.
