When I was twelve years old, I was enrolled in a Christian Science Sunday School following my father's healing of what doctors had diagnosed as a nervous breakdown. During this time I realized I had found my religion, but I did not recognize that I could depend upon it for the complete way of life and of healing.

In retrospect I know that every discordant situation and every illness in which I did not turn to Christian Science for help delayed progress for me, and that I gained in understanding only as I met problems in complete accordance with the teachings of Christian Science.

In 1946, I suddenly had symptoms of hay fever. That fall the condition was severe, it was in following years. During a few of these periods, instead of asking for help in Christian Science, I resorted to drugs sold for relief of hay fever symptoms. I was told by many that once the condition existed I could expect to have it each year. This discouraging outlook aroused me to work for complete healing through Christian Science.
