TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for the relief and improvement of same. You will answer any questions regarding same that I may ask you.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. This we have had here before.
3. Now, we find there are some changes for the betterment in the physical conditions of this body. While there are accentuations in the system, through the body attempting to adjust self, the greater condition of distress is through retraction in the system, and by the eliminations being hindered through many channels, and especially through that of the intestinal system, as well as the organs of the torso and pelvis - this has accentuated through those portions of the system that are affected by this - these various conditions - as well as has the mental attitude towards self, and if the body continues to feel like it's going to be sick, it will GET sick, too!
4. With the conditions as existent throughout the other portions of system - namely, those as are seen in the chest, or breast, we find these are being absorbed, rather than being scattered in system. This produces the greater strain over those ligaments and tissue that are involved IN same, see?
5. For the correction, as we would find, would be to increase the amount of the properties as are being taken - of the eliminants, see? and we would add rather as the stimulant to this, for we would take these in this manner:
6. Two tablespoonsful each day of the Petrolagar - one morning, one evening.
7. One tablespoonful of the Usoline, near the central portion of the day, see?
8. Then prepare as this, which will, as we will find, increase an irritation to the exterior portion of the skin, but would start eliminations in a general way:
9. To 1 gallon of rain water, add 6 ounces ragweed (in the leaf, see?). Reduce this by simmering (not boiling) to 1 quart. Strain. Then add the juice, or tea, as would be produced from one quart of water with 3 ounces of Sassafras Root Bark. This reduce to one-half the quantity. To this add 2 ounces grain alcohol, with 2 drams Balsam of Tolu cut in same. Put solutions together, and the dose would be teaspoonful each day, preferably before the morning meal, see?
10. Do not eat meats! Eat vegetables, and as much GREEN vegetables as possible.
11. Keep the temper sweet.
12. Keep off of the feet. Do not exercise so much the left side, or EITHER side, as to that matter. The feet, the mind, may be kept active, but off of self. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) In her present condition, would it assist any for her to consult a surgeon?
    (A) Only for the mind it might assist, but the surgeon would not be necessary in the condition, and rather detrimental, for the nature of the condition could be easily changed. We have no condition as is, as yet, of the NATURE that would produce, unless it is MADE so by becoming centralized, see? It is not a malignant condition as yet, for it has not set in its own cell, see? else it could not be eliminating or disseminating through the system.
14. That is all the questions.
15. In building in the systems in natures of this character, we find where glands become clogged by any secretion, or any condition in a system wherein cell tissue becomes broken, these lodge and form a condition that is set around by the leucocytes in the system, to attempt to prevent inroads in such tissue. In this condition here, as we find in [569], we are speaking of, we find tissue in the gland wherein this has become separated, but NOT set in the nature of that as is in the case of cells becoming cell building inside of the condition, see? for each cell of any nature, whether of the live tissue, in health or in disease, builds by separating. In this condition the building has been by the system separating. Hence the necessity of that as given - of the eliminations throughout the system being kept in an accentuated, yet not aggravated, condition, else, by creating aggravation in tissue, or in lymph, or in blood, there may be this same condition set up in other portions of the body. [GD's note: Miss [569] died 10/43 after surgery to remove cancerous tumor on Fallopian tube.] Not that the condition in itself is of the malignant nature as yet, for this is as of one separated only in the system of broken or of dead tissue NOT eliminated in the normal way and manner.
16. We are through for the present.
