I am glad to tell how I was healed. Beliefs of consumption, dyspepsia, neuralgia, piles, tobacco, and bad language held me in bondage for many years. Doctors that were consulted did nothing to relieve me, and I constantly grew worse. Nearly two years ago a lady told me that if I would read a book called Science and Health, I should be healed. I told her I would "go into it for all it was worth," and I have found it is worth all. I got the book and read day and night: I saw it must be true, and believed that what I could not then understand would be made clear later.
After some days reading, I was affected with drowsiness followed by vomiting. This lasted several hours when I fell into a sleep and awoke healed. The good I have received, and that I have been able to do in healing others, has all come from Science and Health. I received some instructions from teachers, but they did me more harm than good. I asked for bread, but they gave me a stone. I held to what I could understand of Science and Health, and the Truth does not forsake me, but enables me to heal others.
Last February I was called to treat a child that the M. D.'s said was dying from lung fever. After the third treatment the child got up and ran about, completely healed. Another child was brought me with rupture. After the second treatment the truss was thrown away. An aged lady was healed of heart disease and chills in one treatment. These cases brought me many more that were also healed.
