It is with a great deal of pleasure that I can say I have been healed through Christian Science after fifteen years' sickness. When I was taken sick I called in a doctor, but he was not able to cure me, and I was getting worse all the time. I decided to try another doctor, but he did me no good, so when I was advised to take an ocean trip I sold my home and went to Scotland.

For about two years I was able to work, then I was taken ill again, and after having tried seven doctors, each of whom treated me for a different disease, I was advised to return to America, and did so. On my return here I had to place myself under medical care and finally two doctors said that it would be necessary for me to undergo an operation for bleeding piles. As there seemed to be no other way, I let them perform the operation, but after all my suffering I was no better.

It was at this time that a friend proposed Christian Science, but I would not listen and kept on with materia medica until I was a complete nervous wreck. I could not sleep at all and they were giving me morphine to keep me quiet. When I had about given up all hope of recovery, an aunt who is a Christian Scientist came to visit me, and I was enabled to see a practitioner. Now, after a few short months, I am healed. I am working every day and my health is excellent. The doctors were greatly surprised to see me around and well, as they had treated me for cancer, enlargement of the spleen, floating kidney, etc., but had been unable to cure me. I have been kept in poverty all my life by paying for medical treatment. I paid more each month for this than Christian Science has cost me in a year.
