Testimonies of Healing

From the May 1937 issue of The Christian Science Journal


With a heart full of gratitude I give this testimony of the efficacy of Christian Science healing.

Over a year ago our youngest son, eleven years of age, had mastoiditis. The child expressed great fear, and as my husband was not interested in Christian Science the boy was taken to a hospital, where an operation was immediately performed. Since the child was under medical care he received no Christian Science treatment, but a practitioner was very lovingly helping me through this period.

Subsequent to the first operation the physicians claimed that the trouble was spreading and that a second operation on the neck was necessary. This was followed by a third operation on the hand. A blood transfusion was required. The boy had no interest in things or people about him and was able to retain very little food. At this point the one thought which seemed most helpful to me was that my child had been a pupil in the Christian Science Sunday School and that he had learned that he was God's child, and that when God's child asks for bread he does not receive a stone.
