Testimony of Healing June 4, 1932 Issue

I, too, should like to express my gratitude for Christian Science

Ruth M. Outwater

I, too, should like to express my gratitude for Christian Science. I had been in ill health for three or four years with what several doctors diagnosed as chronic appendicitis and lung trouble. I was unable to attend school and could not walk a block without becoming very tired. I had a constant dread of an operation.

In 1928 I obtained a copy of "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, and asked for help from a practitioner. I was instantaneously healed of constipation, for which I was taking medicine once or twice a week. The other trouble did not yield so readily, however—not until it was pointed out to me that I should study, not for a physical healing, but for a better understanding of God. When I did this the attacks of appendicitis, which had occurred every three or four weeks, became less frequent and less severe. I was soon able to walk any distance with no sense of fatigue. A year later I returned to school.

About two months after beginning the study of Christian Science I became ill with influenza. I called the practitioner that evening and experienced immediate relief; in three days I was perfectly well.
