TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the further improvement of same. You will also answer any questions regarding same that I will ask you.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. This we have had before, you see.
3. Now, we find the general physical conditions in the body are much on the improve from that as we have had here before. There is not so much of the toxic formation in the system, neither is there the pressure or distress as was produced from same. There is yet the indication throughout the tissue, in the circulation, as is effect FROM this condition, as is indicated in the knees, and in the limbs; also the blood pressure is not reduced to normal, yet this is much better than has been.
4. The condition as exists in the hand shows the accumulations of the broken cell, and this should be removed through the operation, as given, yet not just at this time, for there is too much of the toxins in the system, and the taxation to the nerve system is at such a state that the shock under this stress would not be the better for the body at the present time.
5. At least ten days - two weeks - yet, with the continuation of the diet, and of the cleansing of the system, in the manner as has been given should be kept before this should be performed. By then, with these same conditions, this should be removed, for the better conditions of this body. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) Who would be the surgeon to do this work?
   (A) The one in whom the individual entity has the confidence - as at present, with the one making preparation, whom the entity desires - that one would be the better - Jackson. [J. B. Jackson, M.D.]
7. (Q) Will she be able to take the anaesthesia with safety at that time?
   (A) Gas and local, yes.
8. (Q) Should the body take anything to assist in the eliminations or cleansing of the system?
   (A) Rather the diet, and the eliminations as has been given. These are the normal manner, and under stress and strain that the body is passing in a mental way, these are the better, for with any condition taken as this would bring a depression in heart's circulation, or a taxation in being over stimulated, see?
9. That is all the questions.
10. We are through with this reading.
