Some time ago our younger son was taken sick, and one Saturday he came home overcome by severe pain and high fever, and had to go to bed. The family physician, whom I could not discharge because of an existing agreement, stated that this was a case of serious illness; that the high fever was indicative of the existence of internal conditions which might necessitate an operation, unless the patient's condition improved within a few days. The physician prescribed material remedies, but we did not follow these directions, and on Sunday morning I placed the case in the hands of a Christian Science practitioner for treatment. On Sunday the fever had already abated and the swellings were going down. By Monday night the pain also had disappeared, except when he moved. On Tuesday forenoon he was able to get up, and spent the greater part of the day out of bed. The physician was astonished on that clay at the favorable course of the disease. On Wednesday the trouble had gone, and on Thursday morning my son went to work, and has since attended to it without any symptom of the disease having appeared again.
I give this testimony with a heart filled with gratitude, as a proof of the infinite power of divine Love through Christian Science.
