After about an hour of my daily activity, someone reported to my supervisor that I was not well. In a few minutes he came and took me to his office. He told me to sit down and rest. In about an hour the plant physician arrived and gave me an examination. His findings were diagnosed as nervous shock.

I immediately denied this false sense of man, as we are taught to do in Christian Science. This statement from Isaiah came to me at once (2:22): "Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils." I became very quiet and held on to the statement.
