During the last six years I have had many absolute proofs of the power of God in Christian Science healing, and today my heart is full of gratitude for this healing truth. I had previously been a strong woman, but my health seemed to give way entirely. I suffered from acute tonsillitis, which left me in a seemingly critical state with bronchial trouble. Shortly afterwards it was found necessary for me to have an operation on the throat and nose, which caused considerable loss of blood. Then followed lung trouble, which affected the heart.

In spite of every possible medical aid I grew rapidly worse, and the doctors pronounced my case hopeless. When the end seemed near the thought persistently came, "If God cannot heal you, nobody can." I had a sister who had become somewhat interested in Christian Science. She would sometimes read "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mrs. Eddy to me, and I realized that the only time I was free from pain was when she read to me. Just at this time I sent for a Christian Science practitioner to help me, and I shall never forget the peace and joy which came to me after that first interview. I had my first night's sleep after much suffering, and in a very short time the organs were all healed and operating naturally. The doctors were puzzled, but gave credit to Christian Science and admitted it had healed me.

Since that time I have had many proofs of God's care. My little daughter, then eleven months old, had an attack of acute bronchitis and lay apparently in the shadow of the death valley. The case seemed hopeless to human sense, but with loving help and treatment in Christian Science it was overcome through the understanding of God's unfailing love and care for His child.
