My first contact with Scientology was in 1988. My mother went to the Church of Scientology in Fort Lauderdale to get some help overcoming emotional difficulties she was having with my father's death. After 2 years she could not talk to anyone or be reminded of him without breaking down and crying. After about 8 hours of auditing (sitting with a Scientology counselor) she had no problems talking about dad. To this day she can confront the subject of her husband.

     Another life changing process for me was the Purification Program, which removes dangerous toxins from the body. After completion of this program my senses regained abilities that had gotten worse over the years. Food tasted better, I could hear little things more clearly, and I could smell the grass in the yard!

      Also, through Scientology I have learned much about man; how he thinks, why he reacts the way he does. With this knowledge comes understanding and a different viewpoint that helps me do better in my own life.

     For example my income has almost tripled. I credit this to a better understanding of life that allows me to take on more responsibilities and increase my abilities. There is still a lot more for me to know about life, I intend to keep studying and growing into a more capable being. THANK YOU to all the Scientologists that helped with the above. THANKS, L. Ron Hubbard
