Some years ago, while attending school in southern California, I became very ill. I had for some time been acquainted with Christian Science; so I insisted that no doctor be called. At first I tried to do my own prayerful metaphysical work, but I found it so hard to keep awake that I knew I had to have some help. I had been unable to speak or to swallow anything for almost a week.

A Christian Science practitioner was called at my request. She came at once to my bedside, read to me the current Lesson-Sermon from the Quarterly, and reassured me that Christian Science would heal me. When she left she asked my friends to call her if they felt it necessary.

The next day I felt more confident; but the physical condition had not changed, and I was told that my mother had been sent for. The school authorities also told me that they were sending me to the hospital. At this news the two friends who had been caring for me went to the phone to call the practitioner, but could get no answer.
