I gladly testify to my baby's healing in Christian Science with the hope that I may help some other despairing mother. At the time when I sought Christian Science treatment for my baby I knew not what it was nor how my child would be helped, but I had despaired of her life and had lost all hope that medicine or food could help her. I was willing to try anything, as she had been suffering from a stomach and bowel disorder for three months. I had tried almost every kind of prepared food, but not one agreed with her and she was slowly starving. Only a loving mother can know with what anxiety I prepared every spoonful of food according to the doctor's directions, as he had warned me time and again to be careful how I fed the child, as she was so ravenously hungry that if I fed her all she wanted it would kill her.

At last, when my baby was dreadfully wasted, at five months old weighing only an ounce more than she did at birth, kind friends told me of Christian Science. Treatment was given her, and the result was that she got well in less than a week, gaining in weight over a pound the first week, and at the same rate for four weeks afterward. She is now a picture of health and happiness. I followed the Christian Science practitioner's advice with the same precision that I had followed the doctor's rules, and as the light grew a little brighter each day we learned to trust God in sickness as well as in health. Since then we have had several beautiful demonstrations of Christian Science healing in our family.
