From Invalidism to a Life of Usefulness

In gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me, and with the hope of encouraging some one who may be investigating this great Truth, I will relate a little of my experience. Five years ago my husband attended one of the Friday evening meetings at the Mother Church to ascertain what Christian Science could do for the sick.

He had left me at home and in bed, where I had been for four months. For years I had been an invalid, spending a great part of the time in bed or in an easy chair, with occasional seasons of seemingly fair health.

My husband was so impressed with what he heard, that he soon engaged a Christian Science healer to take my case, and I improved from the first treatment. The doctors (and I had several) said I was suffering from neuralgia. rectal trouble, tumor, other internal troubles which medicine could not relieve, and indigestion to the extent that morphine had to be injected after taking a small quantity of liquid food, until finally nourishment could not be taken in the natural way. I had lain in one position propped up and surrounded with hot water bottles for over three months.
