No more lung and heart trouble

I was eighteen years old and had been attending First Church of Christ, Scientist, São Paulo, since I was fourteen. I wasn’t really applying what I was learning to my daily life, but just liked to explore the Bible, and also Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures and other writings by Mary Baker Eddy. 

After a while I began having problems with a cough, and I couldn’t breathe right anymore. I had chest pains and couldn’t sleep. After I spent several days at home not feeling well, my mother came with me to a hospital, where I was admitted with suspected pneumonia and tuberculosis. I was placed in isolation in a room within the lung and heart unit of the facility.

I underwent a surgical procedure to drain my lungs. After several days I was taken for a heart ultrasound, and they said that I had fluid in my heart and that it would be necessary to operate on my heart.
