When I was two years old, I had pneumonia, which, according to the physician, left me with a weak chest. All through childhood I had chest colds and coughs in the winter. After my marriage, I had a severe attack of bronchitis, and the doctor said I was not using one lung and had not been using it for some time.

The lung condition persisted for many years. In 1945 my sister brought me a copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, and I began to read it. There certainly were many truths that I did not understand at the time, but others, such as God's ever-present love and the fact that He never sends evil or sickness, were just what I needed. The chapter on Prayer was very helpful.

When I had read two thirds of the book, I suddenly realized I was well and had been for several days. The healing has been permanent. I have never had another attack of bronchial or lung trouble. Catarrh, from which I had suffered, also disappeared. Since this healing, I have experienced many others.
