For several years previous to my healing in Christian Science, I was a physical wreck, suffering from organic troubles, chronic inflammation, weak stomach, heart disease, and nervous prostration. I had been under the care of many of the best physicians in this city, but received no benefit, the last two doctors having decided that an operation was necessary. They did the best they could for me, but gave me no hope of recovery. I was very discouraged and told them to do what they thought best. I felt that death was my only redress, but my extremity proved to be God's opportunity. My husband, while at his place of business, spoke of our troubles to a friend, who asked if we had tried Christian Science. This friend stated that he had been healed and knew of many cases of healing through Christian Science. When my husband told me of the new remedy, as he called it, and said it would heal without an operation or medicine, I laughed at the idea. However, I concluded to try Christian Science treatment for our boy, who had been troubled with catarrh, it being so severe at times that he could not attend school, and I am thankful to say that he was healed by this treatment.
The practitioner loaned me a copy of the Journal, which I read twice, and neither tongue nor pen can describe the spiritual uplifting I received. I bought Science and Health and commenced reading it, and before I had finished it, I was healed. The understanding of Truth has made the Bible a new book to me. Christian Science has shown me how to help myself and others. I am very grateful to God, and to our dear Leader, Mrs. Eddy, who has shown us the way.— Toronto, Ontario.
