Incurable food allergy healed
First published in the online Russian Herald of Christian Science
A few years ago, when I was 13, doctors diagnosed me with a serious and incurable disease. I was told to stop eating lots of foods, such as rolls, bread, and other baked goods, and refrain from eating any grains and products that might contain grains. Such a strict diet and constant oversight by doctors and specialists, who kept saying how dangerous my condition was, prompted my mother to start looking for a way to find healing spiritually (since physically it was impossible).
Fortunately, a friend told her about Christian Science. We started attending church and I began going to Sunday School. Gradually, I began to understand that disease, sin, and death are not created by God, and therefore are an illusion of the physical senses. I started getting rid of negative thoughts and knowing that I could be healed. But not until I fully understood that God is Life, that I am His reflection, and that His reflection cannot be sick, did the disease yield. It has now been over two years since I felt any discomfort or pain. I have not been back to see the doctors either.
And what a joy it was for me, and happiness for my mother, when during a mandatory medical exam at school, doctors announced that I was absolutely healthy!
