Twenty months ago I was a very miserable, unhappy woman. I had been the victim of complicated diseases for nearly five years, being confined to my bed; and was constantly taking from four to seven kinds of medicine. I took large quantities of tonics and quieting medicines. My physician said I could not live without them, and I too believed I could not—for I suffered intensely even while taking them.
A dear aunt came to visit me, and it was through her that I learned the truth. She gave me two treatments, and the third day I went to the table with the rest of my family, and ate the same that they did. In one week I was well enough to visit my neighbors, and I have continued well ever since.
In my younger days, I had been a member of the church, and for years had been seeking a higher enjoyment, or knowledge of the Truth; but, never receiving any satisfaction in my search, I had become about discouraged. I think I never was truly converted until after my cure; for, after that, I read the Bible with a new light and understanding. I studied both the Bible and Science and Health; asking God for wisdom and understanding, for He has said, "all things, whatsoever ye ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive." I now do the work for five in family, and know that God is my Rock and Strong Tower.
