A healing of poison ivy

I've mentioned this friend before, one who is a new student of Christian Science, who has only been reading Science and Health by Eddy for a few months now.  Some time back, I posted a healing she had had of a spider bite that appeared very serious as she turned to the divine truths contained in this volume.

Well, just heard from her again and the joy was dancing in her eyes.  She dropped by to tell me about a healing after she had been working in their yard clearing brush and had gotten into a bunch of poison ivy.  She told me it was all over her hands, part of her face, and was about to get into her eye.  Her husband said, you need to go get a shot right away.  (This is what she had done in the past before she knew of Christian Science.)  The lady said nothing, but didn't go get a shot.  Instead, she went into her room, took her Bible and Science and Health, began praying, working mentally with many of the statements about God and man/ His ever-with-us  restorative power/the Christ-knowledge Jesus had which the teachings of divine Science give anyone, and so on.    "And do you know what?", she said.  "The poison ivy began disappearing very soon, and in three days not a trace of it was left."  This to her, was remarkable, given what she had endured before.

So, again a proof that Christian Science heals!
