From the August 1942 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Over a long period of years I have been witnessing and experiencing the healing and liberating effects of Christian Science.

When this Science was first brought to my attention I was a registered medical nurse, and because there were no recognized Christian Science nurses in those days I was occasionally called to care for those who were under Science treatment. I had been much interested in religions, and was more than willing to investigate one more. It held my attention from the first, and for thirty-three years I have not resorted to material remedies of any kind.

Christian Science has freed me from many mental and physical inharmonies, but I will tell of only one at this time. About ten years ago I became frightened by an unusual condition of my eyes. I thought I was losing my sight, and for about six months had help from practitioners at different times, but as there was no apparent improvement I stopped having treatment, and depended on my own work for a while. One day I was startled to find quite an enlargement in my throat. I saw then what was causing the eye trouble. To all appearances it was an exophthalmic goiter. Even then I did not ask for help until I met a friend one day who had known me for twenty years and she did not recognize me, my expression was so changed. This incident aroused me to the fact that I had to make my demonstration and make it quickly, because I was working in a place where no noticeable physical defects were permitted.
