Epilepsy healed

Freddy J. Kaganda

Before I came to know Christian Science, I suffered from epilepsy for more than seven years. I sought treatment from doctors, but they told me that it was a chronic ailment and that they had no cure beyond medicine to manage the seizures. Since I could have a seizure at any time, my family kept me at home so they could keep an eye on me. I was told that because of my condition I could never drive, ride a bicycle, climb trees, or go near fire. My life was that of a slave.

One day about five years ago, I was in an Internet café searching for a religion that offered some hope of restoring my health. I found claims that Christian Science heals. I searched more deeply and found a lot of talk about the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy—a book that heals! I wrote to the Clerk of The Mother Church and was sent a copy of the book. I started reading it, and although it was hard for me to understand it, I went on reading.
