EC: Yes, we have had this body before. Now, we find in many
ways the body shows improvements. Especially is this seen in
the condition as exists in the intestinal system, or in the
reactions in the mesenteric system, and those conditions as
have to do most with the vegetative nerve reactions. While
those conditions in the capillaries and the lymph indicate
that the torpidity in the liver still exists, as is seen from
disturbances in the circulation to the capillaries - this,
however, in BASIC forces, bettered. We need yet more stimuli
for the liver and the excretory system, and keep away from
potashes in the system, for these tend to irritation. Would
be well were the elm [Powdered Elm] and the saffron [American
Saffron] used in the water as taken, and not too much OF the
water, but sufficient that the system may absorb sufficient
to keep the activities in digestive system OPERATIVE in a
near normalcy. The activity of the VIOLET ray, [hand
machine, bulb] rather than the ultra-violet, for the present,
will be a better stimuli - and well were this given in the
lower extremities, and in the active centers where the
capillaries are most prominent; as in throat, armpits,
elbows, palms, groins, knees, feet, ankles - see?
(Q) Should present diet be changed? If so, what diet
advised?
(A) None that carries potash, but rather those that carry
more of the iodine. These will be the better at the present,
PROVIDED the water is kept, and the treatments and
manipulation. Be WELL - though it will be irritating to the
body - were the sweat baths be given occasionally. These
carrying, in the steam or vapor, those of witchhazel, which
will irritate - but soothe, and act with the capillaries.
The diet - follow that as given, that the potashes are
eliminated. Most anything else may be used, just so it is
alternated or changed sufficient as not to tire the body in
any direction.
(Q) Is patient eating too great a quantity?
(A) Quantity not so great, but the quality - now - we would
change.
(Q) Are the abrasions ready for the use of ointments?
(A) Not yet.
(Q) Will abrasions on head cause baldness?
(A) No.
(Q) What care should be given face?
(A) Those of the witchhazel steams will get rid of those
conditions where the skin, or where the burns have been
produced in the system.
(Q) How soon is it advisable to leave hospital?
(A) As soon as the body is well!
That is all the questions regarding this body.
We are through with this reading.
