My first healing in Christian Science came when I was eight years old. A case of measles had left me with ear trouble and deafness. These were overcome in one treatment, and my gratitude for the healing resulted in my attending a Christian Science Sunday School.
In December of my sophomore year in college, the sudden passing on of my mother became an opportunity to demonstrate my knowledge of Christian Science. My father at this time was home only on week ends. My younger sister and I were able to continue our schoolwork and manage the home for the remainder of the year. The following year I continued my work at a university in another city. While there I was privileged to serve as Reader in the Christian Science Organization.
After graduating from college, I was unable to find a position in my chosen profession of teaching. Then followed four months of growth in seeing my true work of reflecting God, and being grateful each day for the good which was unfolding to me. At the end of this time a position in the school system in my home town was offered to me.
