I was greatly emaciated and hardly able to be about. 9 My general condition was aggravated by what the doc- tors said was paralysis of the bowels. Three physi- cians so diagnosed it at different times, and assured 12 my husband that I could never get more than tem- porary relief. This indeed I found difficult to obtain, in spite of my almost frantic efforts. At times I was 15 nearly insane from suffering, and after eight years of doctoring I found myself steadily growing worse. For four years I did not have a normal action of the bowels, 18 and it was only by extreme effort and by resort to pow- erful drugs or mechanical means, with resultant suffering, that any action whatever could be brought about. 21 I had heard nothing of the curative power of Chris- tian Science, and only to oblige a friend I went one night, about three years ago, to one of their mid-week 24 testimonial meetings, in Boulder, Colorado. I was much impressed by what I heard there, and determined at once to investigate this strange religion, in the hope that ...it 27 might have something good for me. I bought the text- book, Science and Health, and from the first I found myself growing stronger and better, both physically and 30 mentally, as I acquired a better understanding and en- deavored to put into practice what I learned. In one week 1 I was able to get along better without drugs than I had for years with them, and before three months had passed I 3 was better than I had been any time in my life, for I had always suffered more or less from bowel trouble. Since that time I have taken no medicine whatever, and 6 rely wholly upon Christian Science. My lungs are now sound, my bowels normally active, my general health excellent, and I am able to endure without fatigue 9 tasks that before would have prostrated me. The study of our textbook was the sole means of my healing. — L. M. St. C., Matachin, Canal Zone, Panama. Read more
