I wish to express deep gratitude for the wonderful healings Christian Science has brought to me. I knew nothing of this religion when a Scientist asked me why I wore spectacles. I told him that my eyes were too weak to see much without them. He handed me a copy of Science and Health by Mrs. Eddy, and told me to read the chapter on Prayer, which I did. The next morning I forgot to put on my spectacles. When I did remember them I knew that I was healed. I have never worn them since.
A short time after this, while I was at a picnic, my nose began to bleed. Before this I was always having nosebleed. A Scientist present mentally declared the truth, and my nose stopped bleeding at once. This Scientist then told me not to be afraid any more of nosebleed. That was eighteen years ago, and I have never had any since.
At one time our little boy, aged seven, was playing at a neighbor's when a yearling colt ran over him. A young boy carried him home. Our son's face was covered with blood and dirt. When I washed it off I could see where the colt had stepped on his upper lip. We undressed him and found another bruise on his body. My husband held him while we read aloud the Lesson from the Christian Science Quarterly. Before we were through he was asleep, and he slept till morning. He ate his breakfast as usual and went out to play.
