Six months later, she requested her sister to call and see what Christian Science could do for her, as the physician had dropped her case, and she was no better. She also wished to know if there was anything for her to do. The answer was: "Yes. Purchase Science and Health; read it all you can,—at least one hour a day." She was healed in less than a week, and doing what she had not been able to do for years.
