For seven generations our family has experienced spiritual healings through prayer in Christian Science. Each healing is special, but there is one that stands out above all the others.
When my granddaughter Ashley was in eighth grade, she joined a club in the city that enabled her to play basketball with other girls her age. The last game of the season was a difficult one, as the opposing team was known for playing a very rough, physical game of basketball. At one point my granddaughter was running down the court and reaching for the ball, when she suddenly screamed and ran off the court crying.
Her mother left the bleachers and ran to her side, then motioned to me to come quickly. When I caught up with them at the locker room, I saw that Ashley’s arm had become dislocated from her shoulder and was hanging way down by her side. She couldn’t feel anything with it and couldn’t move it. She was hysterical and sobbing loudly.
