Quick healing after a fall
I experienced a healing many years ago that was so immediate and complete that it strongly impressed upon me the healing efficacy of Christian Science.
I was carrying two armfuls of groceries from my car to my apartment one evening when I tripped on the top step of some steep concrete steps leading from the parking area. Because my arms were full of groceries, I could not use my hands to help break my fall, and my full weight came down on one knee, which caught the edge of the top step. My back foot twisted underneath me and slipped off the second step. It felt as though I had sprained my ankle and either twisted or sprained my knee. Groceries went everywhere.
My first thought was, “Just what I need—a bum knee and a bum ankle at the same time!” I was working as a department foreman in a manufacturing plant where I was on my feet and moving constantly ten to twelve hours per day, including many trips up and down a long flight of stairs to my office. I would be severely hampered in my job if I could not walk easily.
