Overton-Jung's grandmother was dying of lung disease when a colleague of her grandfather's told him about Christian Science, which teaches that disease can be healed by prayer and faith. The colleague's wife was a practitioner of healing, Overton-Jung said. Her grandmother went for treatment at the woman's home and was healed that day. The healing spurred her grandparents to make other changes, she said. My granddad poured out all the booze and never smoked again.
