I wish to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me and my little boy, now nine years old. Two years ago we were both sick, the boy suffering from abscesses in the head, adenoids, and appendicitis. He could not walk and was unable to stand without assistance. The doctor attending him said that two or three operations would be necessary, but none was submitted to, yet to-day through Christian Science he is perfectly all right and has not missed a minute from school this session. I did not know what Christian Science was, but I thought I knew God, so I prayed to be shown a way to get well and was led to Christian Science. I asked people what it was, and when I had found it I had found the "pearl of great price," for there is nothing it will not do for us. I was healed of rheumatism, neuralgia, nervous breakdown, liver complaint, swollen limbs, and deafness, being so deaf I could not hear the telephone bell in the room with me. Cancer on my limb, which I had for more than twelve years, has disappeared; nervous sick headaches which I was supposed to have inherited have gone. I could not eat cooked food, as I suffered from nervous indigestion for eight years, could not sleep, but to-day I have perfect health. I weighed only about a hundred pounds then, now I weigh one hundred and forty. I am grateful to Mrs. Eddy, who has so lovingly shown us the way, and to the loving practitioner who so willingly helped. me. For the literature, also, I am grateful; it has helped me so much. I have had the privilege of class instruction and membership in The Mother Church and in a branch church.
