I wish to add my testimony to those of others

I wish to add my testimony to those of others. About sixteen years ago I began to suffer with my stomach and could eat only foods that did not have any acid in them. I kept getting worse all the time, and about eight or nine years ago was so sore I could neither walk nor ride anywhere.

I had a growth in my left shoulder and the doctor said I was full of cancers. I tried doctors and many so-called remedies, but all in vain. I grew worse and worse every day. In July, 1919, I had become so much worse I could not take anything but dry crackers and cocoa, and could not turn myself over in bed. The doctor told my husband he could do no more for me, and to send for my children and friends. Just about that time a daughter of one of my friends came to see me and asked me why I did not try Christian Science, saying that she had been healed by it. I told her I had an incurable disease. She laughed at me and asked me if I did not know that with God there was not anything incurable, and asked me if I would try Christian Science. I told her I would do anything to get relief. About three nights after taking up Christian Science I awakened with a nervous spell and prayed God to help me. In a little while I went to sleep and rested better than any time since I had been sick. After that I began to recover. I am now doing my own work, and I am well and strong. My heart goes out in gratitude to my dear friends and to Mrs. Eddy.
