Testimonies of Healing

EPILEPTIC CONVULSIONS

From the April 1887 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Dear Journal: I take great pleasure in adding my testimony as to what Christian Science has done for me, in hopes that all suffering ones, who may see my words, may take courage, and flee for help to this Heavenly Science.

For the past five years I have been, in belief, a great sufferer, and received no help under the physician's care. I had what physicians termed epileptic convulsions, heart, spinal, and brain troubles, and my friends had given up all hopes of my ever being any better.

Through a Christian Scientist at home, I was led to come to Mrs. Fenn. While with her I was taken with the most terrible convulsions, which lasted all night and part of the next day. It seemed to me as though all earthly help had fled, and that I must pass through the belief of death. Mrs. Fenn never left my side; and when it seemed as though I had drawn my last breath, she whispered in my ear that God was my Life.
