About thirty-three years ago I was healed of ulcers on the eyes through the work of a Christian Science practitioner, who gave me two or three treatments. I knew nothing of Science at that time, but went to the practitioner as a last resort at the recommendation of a friend, after I had had medical treatment for the eye condition without any benefit.

Many years later I began to attend services in a Church of Christ, Scientist, and enjoyed them, but I did not become a student of Christian Science. I was healed of social drinking simply by attending church services. About this time I was stricken with eczema, and a member of my family called in a physician. I received no help and finally decided to ask help from a Christian Science practitioner. I called at her home for treatment, and that night the condition was so much worse that I telephoned her very early the following morning. She spoke very kindly, explaining the effects of mental chemicalization and expressing so much love and patience that I was inspired to go about my morning household duties feeling greatly uplifted. When I looked in the mirror while dressing for lunch, I was amazed and overjoyed to see that there was not a vestige of the skin disease, I had had an almost instantaneous healing.

At the same time I was healed of a so-called hereditary disease that I had had all my life. I was not cognizant of the latter healing at that time, but realized later that I was not troubled with the disease any longer and then recalled when it had disappeared. I am deeply grateful for the loving work of this consecrated practitioner who helped me along the way when I was seeking the truth. For the past twenty years Christian Science has been my only physician.
