From Dora Baty Argyle
When Alene came to our family she was healthy but one day
she took sick with a cold. It was winter
time and the roads were blocked with snow.
I sat up all night with the heater and rocked her all night. About daybreak my prayers were answered
because I heard the snowplow. We hurried
to the doctor and he told us she would never live. They put her in an oxygen tent and gave her a
Sulpha drug which was just new. A nurse
used to come in her room. She would take
a spoon and work her jaws. One time they
were so set they bent the spoon double.
This lasted for sixteen long hours in which I was constantly praying for
her life. The Lord answered my prayers
again and she got well. She had measles
and pneumonia.
(1945 Denece and Alene Argyle)
