Testimonies of Healing
During much of the time for over twenty years I suffered from stomach ulcers, severe intestinal spasms, headaches, and nervousness. I went from doctor to doctor, being X-rayed and treated; I underwent diets, took many bottles of medicine, and spent thousands of dollars trying to get relief.
One morning upon awakening I realized that I was not hearing as clearly as usual. Immediately I began to study the weekly Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly, as I do every morning, with special attention to the correcting of this erroneous condition.

And because of my gratitude for this unfoldment, I wish to submit my testimony of healing.

Through the study of the Lesson-Sermons in the Christian Science Quarterly I have kept well and have been able to overcome discordant conditions, sometimes through the help of a Christian Science practitioner and sometimes through my own understanding of the truth.
