I have long thought I ought to write something for the Sentinel and tell the great blessing Christian Science has been to me in making me contented. When it was first brought to my notice I was of all mortals most miserable in body and mind.

Without going into details, I will say that for thirty years I was a confirmed invalid. We had spent hundreds of dollars for help from material sources, employed physicians of various schools, and also tried many patent medicines recommended as a "sure cure," as it was said to help others, but all of no avail in my case. I would seem a little better for a time, only to become worse than ever. It was strange to me, that what seemed to help others did me no permanent good; and still stranger, that doctors did not agree as to what ailed me. Some told me I had heart disease, others said my heart was all right.

Some of the ills were dyspepsia, nervous prostration, kidney disease, and female trouble. Dizziness seemed my greatest foe, as the sensation of dizziness came on very suddenly, and left me quite weak and fearful. In fact, I was full of fear, even afraid of myself, afraid that I might lose my mind and do myself some injury if I were left alone. I was actually afraid to be alone, afraid to live, and afraid to die.
