I feel extremely blessed to have a loving mother who is a practicing Christian Scientist. I had a large measure of protection from all so-called children's diseases. A slight case of chicken pox, and later measles, were completely healed in two days.
At the age of twelve I had an attack of what appeared to be appendicitis, after I heard it described in hygiene class. Other members of the family were afraid. My mother made them leave the room, and turned earnestly to God. For several days and nights we sang hymns and read together the Bible Lesson in the Christian Science Quarterly. When the pain was severe, we sang Mrs. Eddy's hymns, and finally the pain vanished completely and never recurred. I returned to school healed.
