Alfred James Worrow

Some eight years ago I was taken ill. The whole of my body was affected and was left powerless in every joint. I was taken to a hospital; and after a few days of many tests and X-ray pictures, the doctors finally told me I had polyarthritis, polyneuritis, and anemia.

After a year of treatment I was well enough to walk again with the aid of sticks; but the doctors told me that I would not be able to go back to my work and that I would have to learn to live with my complaints. This was distressing to me, and I became full of fears. It seemed as if my life were virtually at its end.

I began to pray and to ask God for some help; it seemed such a long time coming that I began to wonder if there was a God. Then a friend of my wife asked if I should like to meet a woman who was a Christian Science practitioner. I accepted the offer to meet her, and my wife and I started to learn a little of how Christian Science works. The practitioner explained to me that Science would help me to get closer to God and that I would find a new life. This was the answer to my prayer.
