I was afflicted with sciatic rheumatism for seven months

A. A. Campbell

I was afflicted with sciatic rheumatism for seven months. My family physician attended me alone for some time, then in consultation with another doctor, but I gradually grew worse. Then a physician who made a specialty of rheumatism tried galvanic batteries, various kinds of medicines, and all kinds of experiments on me, but no relief. I tried other leading physicians until I had tried seven, and suffered so much that I had almost lost my reason. My pain was so great that I have taken sixhypodermic injections of morphine in seven hours, before the the pain would be subdued enough for me to sleep any length of time.

I was prevailed upon to try Christian Science. I was told how others had been healed, and if God would heal others He would heal me. So I put aside my medicine, and morphine, and thought I would give Science fair chance for a period of ten days, if I lived that long. Monday noon I began treatment, and on Saturday night the pain left my limb, and has never appeared since, and that was almost five years ago. The doctors had said that I would have to have an operation performed on my limb, and that I would always be an invalid. But I was cured without the operation and without being an invalid. I am stout and hearty, have made an earnest study of Christian Science, and have seen some wonderful cures performed since my healing.
