I consider it a privilege to express gratitude for my healing through Christian Science of adhesions of the intestines, which followed an operation for appendicitis. Many physicians, including two noted specialists, had given me up, and the last one said that my time here was but a question of a few weeks.
In this hour of utter darkness I reached out in prayer to God for deliverance. An immediate answer came when my footsteps turned to a public library, where I was definitely led to the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy. As I opened this book for the first time a great spiritual light pierced the dark and gloomy chambers of my consciousness with warmth and healing. I had known nothing of Christian Science previously, except that a friend had told my mother it was a very beautiful religion.
I lived with this precious book for an entire week, and my study of it resulted in a complete healing. I was able to eat solid food for the first time after over two years of liquid dieting. Since then there has been normal action of the digestive system. I soon took my place in the business world and have been active along many lines during the intervening forty years.
