Until I had my first healing in Christian Science...

From the July 1961 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Until I had my first healing in Christian Science many years ago, I knew nothing of this religion and had a number of physical difficulties.

One day I was very ill. The doctor was called in, and he predicted pneumonia would develop by morning. He left a prescription to be filled as soon as possible.

My husband felt he should not leave me alone; so we waited for my mother to arrive. Although she knew nothing about Christian Science, she brought with her a copy of the textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, which another member of the family had taken to her home several months before. Mother said, "I brought this book with me, and with your permission I should like to read it to you." I consented, but I assured her that I probably would not be able to hear because I was in such distress.
