Testimony of Healing April 12, 1958 Issue

I was discharged from the Army...

Erle Le Roy Collins

I was discharged from the Army in 1918 and given a pension as a disabled veteran. A chronic abcess of one ear had progressed to the point where the eardrum was destroyed. The hearing was completely gone in the left ear and impaired in the right ear.

I was engaged to be married, but after giving me an exhaustive medical examination, my doctor told me to go home and write my will. He said that it would be necessary for me to undergo a very serious operation and that my chances of survival were probably less than 50 per cent. No assurance could be given that the healing would be complete, even if I lived.

I telephoned this depressing information to my financée, who was a student of Christian Science, and she begged me to have treatment from a practitioner before I submitted to the operation. This I did, and the operation was not performed. Within a period of less than ten days after the practitioner had given me the first treatment, the discharge from my ear completely stopped.
