As I grew in my prayers, I was healed

By Trinka Wasik——Walnut Creek, California

MY MOTHER RAISED ME in Christian Science, but as soon as I hit college I let it go. What I didn't realize was that Christian Science is a whole way of viewing life—from a spiritual perspective—and that this view doesn't go away at the drop of a hat.

About 15 years had gone by when I found myself in a doctor's office, having to face questions of life and death, without a close relationship with God.

I had lost a baby five months into the pregnancy, and doctors couldn't explain why. Immediately following this loss, I started experiencing excessive thirst and urination, drinking about two gallons of water per day. Doctors diagnosed the problem as diabetes insipidus. They said that was the reason for these symptoms. They prescribed hormones, which I took to control the thirst, but the doctors said they couldn't do anything to cure me.
