Testimonies of Healing

From the May 1901 issue of The Christian Science Journal


One of my early cases was that of a lady who had suffered from an illness beginning with a congestive chill, followed by gastritis, peritonitis, and continued hemorrhages. The second time this occurred she was under the care of six physicians, who said if she ever had another attack like it, she could not live through it. But again she was stricken down, and having become somewhat interested in Christian Science she very much wanted to try it, but there was a division in the family on the subject; her son and daughter wanting the Science treatment for her, but the husband, who had just returned from the West and was ignorant of the teachings of Science, being afraid to trust it. After a consultation he consented, and I was asked to take charge of the case.

Each phase of the case manifested itself as formerly, and as vigorously, but was met quickly, and in a short time the patient was not only healed physically, but through the experience had gained the spiritual healing, enabling her afterward to overcome not only her own beliefs, as they made their appearance, but those of her family and many others.

This was eight years ago and all the participants of this particular case are well and happy, continually bearing testimony to the power and permanency of Truth.
