The team doctor, pointing to a bone that had broken the skin’s surface, said, “You’ll have to have your nose set.” Others on the sideline told me how bad it looked. I was upset by these reactions and completely convinced that my nose would never be the same.

My parents, both students of Christian Science, had been watching the game and began silently praying for me as soon as the incident happened. When they asked if I wanted to get the bone set, I said yes.
