With a deep sense of gratitude I desire to express my joy and thanks for what Christian Science has done and is doing for my family and me.
Over two years ago we were told by physicians that they could do nothing further for a small daughter, who had been under the care of doctors and specialists for five and a half years for an aggravated form of asthma, and that the case was hopeless. At the recommendation of a member of the family, who was not a Christian Scientist at that time, we consented to call a practitioner for aid. The day that the practitioner first called, the little girl had been given three injections of a drug, supposedly a powerful heart stimulant, and the doctor feared to give her more, although that which he had already administered had failed to bring relief. The child had not slept for three nights. A treatment was given by the practitioner and she slept quietly all night. In two days she was playing out of doors and went to Sunday school. Improvement continued rapidly. This was a wonderful healing, for there were many fears to be overcome, such as the fear of food, the fear of atmosphere and weather, and the fear of dust and pollen. We were also told that the removal of the child's adenoids and tonsils was imperative, but this condition was met and overcome very quickly through Christian Science treatment.
Because of this healing my wife and I have been led to join The Mother Church and a branch church. The child and her brother and sister have become regular attendants at the Sunday school, and three other members of the family are regularly attending a branch church and applying Christian Science to their own lives. One has had a beautiful healing of sores seemingly due to the work he is engaged in. This condition had persisted for years, but is now healed and he continues to work at the same occupation.
