Words fail me when I endeavor to express my thankfulness...
Words fail me when I endeavor to express my thankfulness to God, and my gratitude to our Leader, for the blessings which Christian Science has brought to me and mine. In the month of August, 1911, our youngest daughter was instantaneously healed, by this wonderful truth, of what materia medica calls St. Vitus' dance, from which she had suffered some three or four years. She had violent attacks at times, and finally was not able to use her left hand at all. She would have sudden and sometimes serious falls, and on one of these occasions it was thought that she was dead. These symptoms continued for about four years, and as we were not able to demonstrate over the condition ourselves, we called a Christian Science practitioner. The little girl was healed with the first treatment, and she has been perfectly well ever since.—Edward C. Oertel, Pittsburgh, Pa.
