"The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the sick is an absolute faith that all things are possible to God,—a spiritual understanding of Him, an unselfed love" (Science and Health, p. 1).
Just before Thanksgiving, 1995, my life was beginning to seem stressful, which was not natural for me. Christmas was another overload, and just after Christmas I had a serious automobile accident in which I was at fault. Though there were no apparent physical injuries, I was uneasy and shaken.
About that time, I began to be in distressing pain, and to experience acute stiffness. I asked for and received treatment from a Christian Science practitioner, but the symptoms continued to increase. I was still trying to carry on my church duties and care for a family member, but excruciating headaches left me unable to drive.
