Testimonies of Healing
A year ago last summer, word came to me of an injury a lady had sustained in falling from her wheel. I received the message in the evening, and went immediately to work.
One of my early cases was that of a lady who had suffered from an illness beginning with a congestive chill, followed by gastritis, peritonitis, and continued hemorrhages. The second time this occurred she was under the care of six physicians, who said if she ever had another attack like it, she could not live through it.
I am glad to testify that I have been healed by Christian Science. I had suffered for four years from hemorrhage caused by growths, and other female troubles.
In January, 1898, I went to Montreal and submitted to an operation, being under the influence of ether two and one half hours. I had not been well for a year previous.
My husband and I have been trying to live Christian Science for the past five years. About four years ago we had the privilege of class instruction from one of the Leader's loyal students.
I wish to give an account of some of the good that has come to our family since we began studying Christian Science. In the first place, I was treated and healed of a very serious case of eczema, and afterward of sore throat of long standing.
Several years ago, just as I had taken up the study of Christian Science, we moved into the jail residence, Mr. M.
It was two years last August that I first heard anything good of Christian Science, but I am thankful every day,—yes, every hour,—that I have been led to this blessed Truth. At that time my sister had been suffering with a fibrous tumor for over two years, and the only hope the doctors held out was an operation which she felt she would not survive.
In January, 1894, I first heard of Christian Science. I took a few treatments and was much benefited.
I had been sick from childhood, and for eighteen years had suffered more than tongue can tell. My case seemed rather slow of healing, although I received help from the first, and I am sure I needed this slow and steady growth.
