OUR CAT COULD WALK NORMALLY AGAIN
Originally published in Le Héraut de la Christian Science
My daughter and I had spent the morning shopping together, sharing moments of joy, of companionship and harmony.
When we got home, our cat, Pioupiou, was sitting at the door in a very strange position. As soon as she saw us, she started to whimper. Her pupils were completely dilated, and it appeared she couldn't see because she turned her head only in response to our voices. I noticed that one of her rear paws was bent. As I felt her with my fingers, I noticed that the leg had become separated from the hip.
At first I was shaken—especially since she couldn't seem to see—and I didn't know how to pray. But a sentence I'd heard two days before during a Wednesday testimony meeting in my church, came to me: "The Lord's Prayer is a healing prayer."
