This testimony is given with the hope that it may encourage someone who is feeling as akeptical about Christian Science as I used to feel, to investigate this Science and find that all things can be changed "in the twinkling of an eye" (I Corinthians).

I had been in and out of the hospital several times for a condition five specialists could not diagnose. I was unable to eat or care for my family at times. Christian Science had been suggested to me by my husband on two different occasions, but I would have no part of it. My father was a doctor, and I felt I would be dishonoring him if I took an interest in Christian Science.

This illness recurred a number of times for about three years. The last time it occurred I again took to my bed. That night my husband brought home a copy of the Sentinel and asked me to please read it. I was reluctant to do so, but the next morning I read it from cover to cover. I could scarcely believe what I was reading. What inspired me the most was the fact brought out in the articles and testimonies that God was actually aware of me, that He loved me and cared for me. It was hard to believe, but at the same time I felt completely free from the discomfort I had known for so long, and I knew I was healed.
