Although I had known of Christian Science for a few years, it was not until 1944 that I really became a student of this Science. Since then I have had lovely healings through reliance on God; some instantaneous, some through the faithful work of a Christian Science practitioner, and others after a long period of prayer and study.

A few years ago a lump began to grow on my knee, and a painful swelling came behind my knee, making walking difficult. A member of my family who is not interested in Christian Science saw the condition one day and was so alarmed that, unknown to me, she telephoned a doctor and asked him to call at the house. I did not meet the doctor, but this act and concern of my relative alerted me to see the healing must take place quickly, and through Science.

The following weekend I attended a Christian Science students' association meeting. During the day we were told how a practitioner healed her sister of a tumor by reversing in her prayer everything afflictive that had taken place in the sister's experience, and replacing it with the spiritual fact as she knew it must exist in divine Science.
