I should like to relate a healing I received through Christian Science of a malignant growth.
Because a member of my family, who is not a Christian Scientist, urged me to go to a physician for an examination, I consented, but I made it clear that I would not accept any medical treatment. The doctor told me that in order to avoid consequences of a very serious nature I should have X-ray treatment. I informed him that I was a Christian Scientist, that I would not accept medical treatment, and that my visit to his office was only at the urgent request of my family.
Upon reaching home that evening I read in Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy (p. 495):"When the illusion of sickness or sin tempts you, cling steadfastly to God and His idea. Allow nothing but His likeness to abide in your thought. Let neither fear nor doubt overshadow your clear sense and calm trust, that the recognition of life harmonious—as Life eternally is—can destroy any painful sense of, or belief in, that which Life is not. Let Christian Science, instead of corporeal sense, support your understanding of being, and this understanding will supplant error with Truth, replace mortality with immortality, and silence discord with harmony."
