With a great desire to express my gratitude for what Christian Science has done for me I give this testimony. I was a sufferer for fourteen years from a large growth in the stomach which caused me great pain. I could not stand or walk and could scarcely eat anything. My heart was also in a very bad condition and I had lung trouble. My doctor ordered me to a hospital to undergo an operation, but I thought I could not live through it.
I knew a little about Christian Science, but not enough to help myself. A very dear lady offered to take me to London, and I just jumped at this chance, for I knew if I could only get to the Christian Science church and see a practitioner and have treatment I could be healed. After I had been to the reading room and a lady had given me a practitioner's address I was almost afraid to go there, because I could not pay a high fee, but something said to have no fear, so I walked boldly up to the office and from that very minute I knew I should be healed. The practitioner gave me treatment and I felt better there and then. The growth caused a stoppage of the bowels, but that difficulty was soon overcome, and the growth and other ailments began to disappear. The lump in the side was gone in a fortnight, also the pain. I was in London only a month, and at the end of that time came home a different woman. There was no longer any cause for an operation. The healing was really most wonderful.
My little daughter had a splendid healing of dysentery. She was very ill, but I sent to a Christian Science practitioner for help, and the pain was all gone the next afternoon. About the time the request for treatment would have reached the practitioner my daughter said the pain was gone and she knew treatment had been given her. She was better and in a day or two was about again as before.
