Testimonies of Healing

BLIND, DUMB, INSANE

From the September 1887 issue of The Christian Science Journal


My dear Teacher: I must tell you of some demonstrations I have had lately, which I know you will be glad to hear.

A lady from Philadelphia, who has been blind and deaf for thirty years, can now thread a needle, and is improving in many ways.

A girl nineteen years old, who was dumb, and had never spoken, commenced talking after her third treatment, as if she was thinking aloud; and she has talked ever since.

I had a case, in the winter, of hemorrhage of the brain, where a girl lay in a comatose state for three weeks. In that time they had fourteen physicians, and all except one said she would never come out of that condition. She did come out of it, in three days after I took the case. She had been partially insane for some time, and had paralysis; but she soon recovered entirely. It made a stir among the doctors. Five have called to talk about the Science, and every few days I receive letters from some physician in regard to it.
