When Christian Science came to our home a year ago, we were in despair of finding anything that could heal our son, four years old, of a trouble that had baffled physicians for over a year. They had removed his tonsils and adenoids, circumcised him, and treated him for leakage of the heart; they also took X-ray examinations and found his colon the size of an adult's. After being dieted for several months, given enemas from one to four times a day, the doctor's directions being followed faithfully, he still manifested what the doctors thought were either convulsions or epileptic fits; they could not decide which. In addition to these spells he would apparently lose all consciousness of his surroundings many times a day and drop heavily to the floor, then get up with a dazed expression and go on with whatever he was doing. We became desperate when the specialist who was treating him seemed in doubt and could not be sure that the trouble was not epilepsy. At this time a dear friend invited us into her home and tried to give us an understanding of Christian Science, as we knew nothing of it. We took up Christian Science as a last resort, and with the loving help and understanding of a practitioner, and much study on our part, our son was completely and gloriously healed within three months.
My husband, after seeing our son's healing, became eager to be healed of an ulcer of the stomach from which he had been suffering for five years. During this time he had gone through two medical clinics, had been operated on, and had dieted without any cure resulting. Ten days after treatment from the same practitioner who had treated our son, he was entirely healed, and has had no return of the pain since.
For these and many other healings, and for the peace "which passeth all understanding," we are more grateful than words can express. May we by our living and our testimonies be of some help to others.— Buffalo, Montana.
