TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [951]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there are a great many changes in the physical forces of the body since last we had same here. Not all are for the betterments.
4. Those tendencies and unbalanced conditions that have been existent in the body, and that need a general change in the keeping of better eliminations, have produced rather a complication of disturbances in the present.
5. There are those tendencies for the reduction of the vital forces as brought about through assimilation, - which is indicated by the conditions in the lungs as well as in relation to the elimination of uric acids in the system.
6. There is a complication of those tendencies towards a diabetic condition, with a weakening - though not tubercle - in the lungs.
7. We find that these need a change in environs or surroundings, more where there would be iodine in the air as combined with pine - or a higher altitude, and to keep in the open a great deal.
8. We would take small quantities of Atomidine for periods.
9. Take easily assimilated foods; a great deal of fish and fowl, a great deal of milk and cream. But LIVE IN THE OPEN!
10. This we would do.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What causes and what should be done for condition of throat, and cough?
    (A) This, and the tendency of the weakening in the mucous membranes of the throat is a part of the bronchi infection as indicated, see? And, as we have outlined, keep in the open and in the sunshine, and in somewhat rarefied air.
13. (Q) The back?
    (A) All of these conditions arise from the same disturbances.
    We would do as has been outlined for the body, if we would bring the more easily the bettered conditions.
14. We are through with this reading.

BACKGROUND

1. See 951-3 on 11/16/38 & subsequent Reports.
2. 8/21/41 Mother's ltr.: "Her throat bothers her awfully, she coughs a lot & very hard. Also her back is hurting her & clear around her; she hurts in front, the bladder or something seems full & heavy. She has had several osteopathic tr. but they don't seem to relieve her... One doctor wants her to have a picture of her chest taken. We have thought of sending her to ..., Calif. in the mountains with [2461]'s mother for a few months. Her kidneys are very bad at night."

REPORTS

1. 9/06/41 Card from Calif: "My cousin will take me up to Grandma's cottage in the mountains tomorrow. Have been watching diet, feel much better - not sick now, no headache - kidneys almost normal. I am trying very hard to do as you say."
2. 10/19/41 "I am feeling fine, better every day. My kidney were upset a little, but have had an osteopathic tr. & they are better now. Other than that I am feeling better every day."
3. 1/08/42 Mother's ltr.: "[951] is working in the hospital office at the 11th Cavalry, they are located now in permanent quarters at Camp ..., Calif. This is about 16 mi. from Mother's cottage where she first went. She has been there since the 6th of Dec. She is trying now to have milk delivered to her, as her last letter says she is not getting enough, but she can not eat any sugar or they bother her and milk seems necessary. She is about 60 mi. east of ... and on the Mexican Border, but she thinks they are as safe there as any place. She is much happier than she is in ... and seems to feel much better."
4. 2/11/42 "[951] likes her work very much, is happy & feels fine...trouble with her kidneys only once in a great while she says. She has had a little cold & wants to wait a little longer for her rdg.; although she is not insisting, just whatever we think, so I guess we can wait a little longer. As to her leaving there, she might expect to stay...yet leave in a hurry. Says she is leaving it all to one wiser than we and she feels she must have been sent there for some reason. It has all just seemed to happen. She is getting milk now and says their meals have more green vegetables. She also has the artichokes I had sent to her, says they were wrapped in moss & were very nice."
5. 3/11/42 Miss [951]'s ltr.: "My kidneys are much better, although occasionally they cause me a little trouble. The sugar condition has cleared up. The doctors here at the hospital, & the Lab. Tech. keep a close check on me, so I know about where I stand. Everyone here has been so very good to me. I have made so many good friends."
6. 11/10/42 Miss [951] got married.
7. 3/27/43 She obtained her next Ck. Physical - See 951-6.
