In the year 1913 we traveled from South America to our home, Zurich, Switzerland, where we opened a store. In December my wife became ill with abdominal cancer and was obliged to undergo a severe operation in a hospital. After approximately one and one half years symptoms of cancer again appeared, and the physician stated that if she wanted to live she must undergo a second operation. We could not decide to take this step again.

Late one Wednesday afternoon a customer came into our store, and upon leaving stated that she was going to a meeting. In order to divert my wife's thoughts I made arrangements that she too might attend, and it proved to be a Christian Science testimony meeting. From that time on my wife attended the Sunday services and Wednesday evening meetings regularly. Through her attendance she became acquainted with a practitioner and requested her help, which was lovingly given. In one treatment the cancer symptoms disappeared and my wife's appearance improved daily. Formerly when she attended church services she was excited for the remainder of the day, but when she returned from the Christian Science service there was a great sense of peace.
