TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the further improvement of same, and you will answer the questions regarding this body that I will ask you.
2. EC: Now, we find there are many changes in the physical conditions of this body at the present time from that as we have had before. While there are many conditions accentuated at the present time, through the shock to the whole system, and to the mental forces of entity, the worry of the reaction shows in the system, yet we find that this will only need a little time for the body to recuperate from this condition, and with the condition that produces the distress removed, we will find the body, kept in a normal way, will gradually build to the better condition for the whole physical body, overcoming many of the conditions as have been existent in the system.
3. Now the body only needs rest, plenty of food (as soon as the body can take it) that digests well with the system. Milk, olive oil, and any condition that builds fat tissue in the system without taxing the digestive organism, or overtaxing liver or kidneys, see? Any of these. That in the milk will necessarily be of that nature that acts with the digestive system - that is, such as the buttermilk, and such natures as that - the Bulgarian milk, or that nature, better than much of the rich sweet milk, but what is necessary is for the system to gather that necessary in the system for the blood rebuilding forces in the system.
4. Well, too, as soon as the body has recovered from the shock, that those vibrations as have been accorded for the system would be now repaired or given to the system, for their reaction in the body, to create the perfect equilibrium throughout the body, for the metabolism re-established, with the blood supply lessened in its force through the condition that produces the toxins that are poisonous to the organic portion of the body, and the blood, the body will rebuild to its normal forces, see? A few more days' rest, see, and then gradually beginning with the regular activities of the body; keeping the diet, and then as much outdoor exercise as the body can take, with the regular forces and duties, see? Soon the body should have rest entirely away from all activities - sea air and salt, or steamer trip would be well for the body, see? Ready for questions.
5. (Q) Is there any antiseptic wash or gargle that should be used for the throat at the present time?
   (A) That that has been given for the body is good, for we see the operation as was performed was well done, see? We will need to keep the antiseptic, of course, as the body as performed the operation has outlined, for we will not want infection, nor re-infection, from scar tissue, causing a depression in any nerve plexus.
6. (Q) The operation was a success then - and satisfactory?
   (A) At present the operation shows that there are good results, see? and we will only need to keep those antiseptics and keep a watch-out for the conditions, that there are no reactions from the condition, see?
7. (Q) That is all the questions.
   (A) Follow out those conditions as have been outlined. We will find that the body, through its own mental forces, will be able to repair much for self, through the application of that knowledge as is obtained in self as regarding its own physical condition - casting out fear, for he that is afraid is scarcely worth while.
8. We are through for the present.
