I Cannot thank God enough for directing me to Mr. H., for I had no idea I should he any better; but, like a drowning man catching at a straw, I went to see him on Nov. 1, 1888. Within three months I was completely cured of curvature of the spine and internal cancer; also of a morphine habit of eight years' standing. I was never free from headache since I can remember. My husband employed the best medical skill he could hear of; had employed eighteen different M. D.'s, besides having advice from others. They all said there was no help for me, and that I would have to take morphine as long as I lived. Thank God for Christian Science! I have not taken any, nor any other kind of medicine, since Nov. 6, 1888, and am, I firmly believe and know, cured of all the beliefs. I was bent with my head nearly to my knees, am now straight, and perfectly well and happy.
Perhaps it may be some help to someone to know the spirit or frame of mind in which I first went to Mr. H. I knew nothing about Christian Science, but one of my neighbors jokingly asked me why I did not go and see the Christian Scientist, as I was going to the city. His words kept coming to my mind. At last I took it where I had taken everything for many years, and asked God's guidance. I asked Him to direct me, and if I was to get better, to give me the evidence in some way from the first treatment. I never asked the Scientist one question, whether he thought I would be better or not, but left it with God. My husband said next morning he believed I was better, and wanted me to go again. I went back and forth sixteen miles, and drove home after dark. I took only one dose of morphine after the first treatment, and that was the sixth day. In two weeks I was straight, and inside of three months perfectly well. My husband, although not a demonstrator, is a firm Christian Scientist, and thanks God for the doctrine of Life, Truth, and Love, and the allness of God as taught by Christian Science. Yours in the Truth,
