Kitten healed of congenital malformation
Three years ago, I awoke to find my active four-month-old kitten struggling to walk more than a few steps without lying down.
I phoned a Christian Science practitioner to help me see and understand that this dear little kitten was, in spiritual reality, an unfettered idea of God, expressing agility and grace. I made an appointment with the local veterinarian—not for a diagnosis, but to see how to make the kitten most comfortable, since it was to visit my young granddaughter, who would be picking it up and carrying it around. The vet explained that the kitten had a genetic malformation in the knee joints in its hind legs that would require surgery, followed by extensive therapy.
