One day early in a week in 1987, something developed under one of my arms. At first I was just uncomfortable, but soon I was unable to raise the arm. After a short time I called a Christian Science practitioner for help through prayer. We both worked with spiritual truths found in Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, including this statement: "Christian Science brings to the body the sunlight of Truth, which invigorates and purifies."

On Saturday afternoon I served in our local Christian Science Reading Room. I had a fruitful time explaining Christian Science to a young man who was a waiter on a cruise ship leaving that night for a voyage around the world. He purchased enough Christian Science literature to last him for the trip.

Later that day the physical condition became aggravated and I could not use the arm at all. The thought came, "Why not call the Christian Science visiting nurse?" I got in touch with her, and within a short time she was at my door! She assured me that I was in God's care. I felt God's love so strongly during her visit. The nurse made a very comfortable bandage for me to wear.
