My maternal grandmother was caring for her two-year-old granddaughter, who had been diagnosed by a physician as having tuberculosis of the hip.

This woman inquired about the cause of the weeping. After being informed of the problem, this dear woman—a Christian Scientist—asked if my grandmother would like her to pray for the child.
