When I was a young boy, it became evident that I had a serious functional trouble. Some years later a severe form of indigestion appeared, and I was unable to partake of any solid foods. As time went on, a so-called incurable disease of the blood appeared. This caused me much fear and discouragement. While I was living in an eastern city, a friend to whom I occasionally voiced some of my troubles asked me why I did not try Christian Science. However, I was not interested in religion at that time.

In later years I moved to another city, and when I mentioned my difficulties to the family that I was living with I was again asked why I did not try Christian Science. Soon I visited a Reading Room and told the attendant of some of my troubles. The textbook, Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, was loaned to me, and I was told this book would heal me. When I found that medicine and Christian Science would not work together, my medicines were all disposed of. Soon I realized with great joy that I had been healed of continuous hunger.

Later on, help from a practitioner was asked for, and before long I was able to eat anything I desired without any discord whatever. Hatred, jealousy, and discouragement, as well as the appetite for tobacco, coffee, and tea, were overcome through Christian Science, and none of them have returned over a period of more than forty years.
