It is with pleasure that I tell what Christian Science has done for me. For years I had been afflicted in many ways. The physicians said I had heart trouble and was liable to die at any time. About three years ago I received an injury which caused prolapsus uteri in a very aggravated form. We employed different physicians who recommended a supporter, as they could do nothing else for me but perform an operation which they said was the only known remedy, and that it might result fatally. My husband and family would not consent to an operation, nor could I summon courage for the terrible ordeal, so I suffered on until late last autumn. One day my son and his wife came to see me, and they asked why I did not go to a Christian Science practitioner. I told them I did not feel able to go, but they insisted and I went with them. They had to assist me in ascending the stairway leading to the Christian Science reading room. We procured a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," which I began reading. I also took treatment about four weeks in all.

The results are indeed wonderful, and I feel like praising God continually that I was led to receive the truth. I have not an ache or pain, and am not only thankful that I am free from pain but also for the wonderful spiritual blessing I have received. I am now able to attend our services regularly, and am constantly receiving yet more blessings. I understand my Bible now as never before, and I am determined to learn more of this blessed truth of which I have been so long denied by mistaken belief.
