This testimony is written in gratitude...

This testimony is written in gratitude to Christian Science and with the special hope of giving encouragement to those who have suffered for a long period of time.

In 1942 I developed a severe case of stomach ulcers, as well as a condition of athlete's foot which became so aggravated that it spread all over my body. I will not dwell on the agonies I endured. These conditions continued during the period of World War II, getting progressively worse. But as I held a responsible position, I remained at my post until after the war ended, and then in February, 1946, I quit my position.

By July, 1950, I had become so weak that I could not lift a teacup with one hand. All this time I was either treating myself in Christian Science or having another treat me. I remembered and adhered to Mrs. Eddy's admonition (Science and Health, p. 22), "If your endeavors are beset by fearful odds, and you receive no present reward, go not back to error, nor become a sluggard in the race."
