When I began reading the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, so chronic and acute was my case that my only hope was to bear my lot in life a little better. I had been troubled with acne and anemia over a period of fifteen years.

At this time my roommate was sick with a fever. To comfort her I placed cold wet cloths on her head, then settled down to read the textbook. But no sooner did I start to read than she would call out for another cloth. Seeing I was getting nowhere with the book or the cloth, I decided that it must be one or the other. With determination to comprehend, I pursued the reading prayerfully. I don't remember now the passages I read, but the light of divine Truth entered my consciousness and I was satisfied. Simultaneously my friend called out, "I feel all right." The fever was gone.

Because of the regulations of the club where we lived, it was compulsory for her to have a doctor or go to a hospital. She decided on a doctor. The doctor said, "You are all right now, but you have had the measles."
