Sometimes when I have spoken of Christian Science to people, they have said that they could possibly accept the idea of relying upon God for healing of most conditions, but, "What if you broke your arm. What would you do then?" I can now assure others, from my own experience, that Christian Science is adequate to heal such a condition.

While I was riding a motorcycle and doing some jumping maneuvers, I came down in a wrong position. The front wheel hit first and turned sideways. This sent the bike and me tumbling. I had fallen before and was not concerned, as I had felt no pain. I proceeded to try to right the bike and found my left arm useless. I went ahead and righted the bike, which was only slightly damaged. Then I was able to ride it home with just one hand. It soon was apparent to me that something must be broken. It was now about three in the afternoon, on Wednesday, and I had to conduct our weekly branch church testimony meeting. I gathered up my suit and books and went to a friend's house, where he helped me prepare for the service, since the condition was very uncomfortable.

I prayed for myself and studied many Bible passages and references from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.
