My parents became sincere students of Christian Science when, as an infant, I was healed through the prayers of a practitioner of a severe case of pneumonia. My brother and I had the privilege of attending Christian Science Sunday Schools during our pre-teen and teen years, and any childhood problems during this period were quickly cured through the application of the law of God, supreme harmony, as revealed in Mrs. Eddy's writings.

These proofs of the healing power of the Christ which I witnessed as a girl have been invaluable sources of assurance to me when similar problems have arisen in bringing up our daughter, who is now a freshman in college. My husband, though not a Scientist at the time of our marriage, soon embraced its teaching and learned to place radical reliance on God for every need.

Our daughter was healed of measles and mumps in forty-eight hours. When she was in the first grade, we noticed that she had trouble with her vision and had to hold her books within about six inches of her eyes in order to be able to read. Christian Science treatment was begun, but little progress was noted.
