From the September 1940 issue of The Christian Science Journal


For the wonderful help that has been mine through Christian Science. I herewith give thanks with all my heart.

My little daughter, then five years old, had fallen very sick with bronchial catarrh. The child lay for five weeks in a high fever. A doctor tried to alleviate the child's suffering, but nothing helped. On the advice of our doctor we called in a specialist to assist, but he simply stated that the treatment of his colleague was correct, and that he could do nothing further. Oxygen was administered to the child to make her breathing easier. Then when her heart, too, became weak, medicine still brought no improvement.

I then heard of Christian Science for the first time, through a young girl who was with us. I grasped at this ray of hope, and the same day I asked a practitioner to come to us. She came at once, and gave us loving help. From that hour I gave the child no more medicine. After the first treatment the little one looked up at me with clear eyes. Through the loving treatment of the practitioner, she was able to leave her bed in a few days, and within two weeks she was well.
