Testimonies of Healing

By the time our son was about a year old, he occasionally exhibited troubling behavior. After falling asleep in his crib at night, he would wildly cry out.

A few years ago, I had a painful condition in the upper part of my mouth. At first, I thought it might be an allergic reaction.

Sitting stiffly on the edge of my couch, I was praying to find relief from intense internal pain. But as the night progressed, the problem worsened.

In the spring of 2019 my husband passed on. This was rather sudden, and it marked the beginning of a very significant lesson and healing for me over nearly three years.

One fine midmorning not too long ago, I sat down on the couch to enjoy some quiet time before lunch. As I was resting there, I watched a bee enter my room through the small gap at the bottom of the door.

When I was in college and came home for Christmas break, one Sunday morning I decided to make some tea. Our family had just moved to a new house and the kitchen was unfamiliar to me.

The isolation of the lockdown imposed upon us during the recent pandemic was a blessing for me. It gave me time alone, away from the unwelcome stress I experienced when going to work, or even to the grocery store.

Several years ago, I experienced three episodes of heart attack symptoms over a six-month period. The first was at home with my three college-age children.

Several years ago, I awoke on a Monday morning with discomfort in my back. Both lying down and sitting up were very uncomfortable.

In my early 20s I noticed that my vision had started to deteriorate. It didn’t interfere too much with my regular activities, so I didn’t treat it in Christian Science.
