Alarming symptoms vanish
Originally written in Spanish, this testimony first appeared in the November 2013 Spanish, French, German, and Portuguese editions of The Herald of Christian Science.
One day, I ran into a friend whom I hadn’t seen in a long time. She told me she’d had a very serious kidney infection. Then she began to tell me in detail about the symptoms and suffering she had experienced. At some point in the conversation, I was so impressed by what my friend said that I kept replaying in my mind what she was telling me. We said goodbye, and I didn’t think about our meeting anymore.
A few days later, I was doing some chores at home when I suddenly began feeling unwell. I had to stop working and went into the bathroom and noticed some bleeding. I became alarmed when I realized that I had all the symptoms my friend had described.
I lay down and began to read the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy. I was looking for inspiration, as I do in every instance when I am confronted with a problem. I prayed and asked God to tell me how to face this situation.
