Seven years ago my wife commenced
having spasms or fits and ] called In my
home physician and he said she was para
lyZed. He rubbed her with salt water and
gave her cslomel and she eventually got
some better, but in a short time size had
another attack. She was confined b her
bed for three months and the doctor could
not help her. She had FITS frequently, some
times very severe. Her hands would cramp
so we could not open them and she finally
got SO her jaws would become locked
Finally l saw the doctor was doing her no
good and ordered bottle of DR.. MileS' Re
storative Nervihc. She received so much
benefit from the first bottle that I cot some
more. She has taken a number OF botttas
but has never had fIt since taking the iirst
dose. She also thinks very highly Of DR..
