I have had many wonderful proofs that Science is workable, and for these I am very grateful. During my childhood I was quickly healed of various so-called children's diseases. Occasionally I heard some grownups state that I should have my adenoids removed since I could not breathe through the nose. However, this condition was gradually overcome just through the wonderful teaching received in the Christian Science Sunday School. Many years later, when I had to have a medical examination, the doctor commented especially on the fact that the nasal passage was unusually large and clear.
I had a similar experience with tonsils. School doctors insisted that my tonsils were large and should be removed. Again the spiritual growth which came as a result of Sunday School attendance healed me. There was no more comment about tonsils, and since this healing, sore throat has been practically unknown to me.
One experience especially has buoyed me in moments of doubt, for it proved the truth of Mrs. Eddy's statement in the textbook, Science and Health (p. 60), "Soul has infinite resources with which to bless mankind, and happiness would be more readily attained and would be more secure in our keeping, if sought in Soul." At one time during the depression years I felt it was imperative that I have a new winter coat. However, our budget was so meager that there did not appear to be any way of meeting this additional expense.
