Edgar Cayce Readings, 951-7

Time and Place: 3:55 to 4:05 P. M. Eastern War Time. just off Route 78, ..., Georgia.

TEXT

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:
EC: It's four miles - four and one quarter.
Yes, we have the body here; this we have had before.
As we find, conditions are progressing very satisfactorily.
It would be well if the body would have occasionally a gentle massage, when ready to retire of evenings.
The period should be complete, as we find, near to the end of December or the first of January - but appears nearer the sixteenth of December.
The delivery should be normal, as we find, but there will be trouble with the kidneys unless proper precautions are taken to keep the activities well. Hence very small quantities of watermelon seed tea would be well, soon after the birth of the babe.
Keep sufficient exercise. Keep the mental attitude as constructive as possible. Keep the surroundings as pleasant as possible.
Do have the massage, as it will rest the body much. This would be given especially over the areas of the sacral and the ninth dorsal upward. Best that this be done by a neuropath.
Do that.
Ready for questions.
(Q) How may pressure on bladder be alleviated?
(A) Haven't we just been trying to tell you how that the gentle massage is to relieve these tensions? Because of conditions that will be left by the activities of the kidneys, these should be purified by very small doses of watermelon seed tea after the birth. Grind, crack or crush a teaspoonful of watermelon seed and pour a pint of boiling water over same, - only using an enamel or crock container, covered. Let this stand for twenty minutes, strain, and then put in the refrigerator. Take this amount during two days. Then don't take any more for at least three to four days afterwards. Then repeat this.
(Q) What changes in diet should I make?
(A) It is very good in the present. Just don't eat any fats, or sweets.
(Q) How can I take a sufficient amount of calcium and still keep it in solution? (Milk comes up when I drink it.)
(A) Calcios is the better manner to take calcium. It is more easily assimilated, and will act better with pregnancy than any type of calcium products as yet presented. About three times each week, at the noon meal, eat a whole wheat cracker spread thinly with the Calcios. Keep this up until about the tenth of December.
(Q) Where, and by whom should the baby be delivered?
(A) Better that it be by a specialist from the osteopathic profession.
(Q) Are there any complications?
(A) Not in the present. If the proper precautions are taken, there should not be. Only the warnings respecting the kidneys and the care of the body just after the birth.
Do these and keep the proper attitude; and we will find that conditions will be more satisfactory.
We are through for the present.

REPORTS

11/12/43 "My goodness, I am just recovering from the surprise, I guess. Seems funny that I am 8 mo. now, I'm so little and have only gained 13 lbs. so far; however, 6 more weeks will make a difference. Seems sort of impossible, yet my Papa Cayce said so, so I am going home the end of the month and prepare accordingly. Bet you a cookie 'J. R.' arrives in time for Christmas. I don't see how he can, but my faith in readings makes me think he will anyway."
11/18/43 Mother's ltr.: "The baby seems very active and strong and we think you are correct in the Dec. 16th date. But we surely would have been caught in ... as we hear the ... Div. move to Arizona, to the desert, in Jan., and she would have been left here. So it surely helped us from making wrong plans. The Calcios just arrived on the morning mail, a nice letter with it."
12/24/43 Mother's wire [Night Letter]: "[951]'s baby girl arrived Friday forenoon 10:30. [951] and baby doing fine. Weight 4 lbs. 3 ounces. Love."
12/27/43 They obtained Physical Rdg. for baby - See 3473-1.
1/08/44 Mother's ltr.: "[951] had one of her headaches this week believe she eats something heavy - too large a piece of meat, which sometimes causes it. Maybe the acid from the meat. Must be something she does... She is sitting up and getting about the house now. We have the second batch of watermelon seed tea made and she is taking it, took it to the hospital to her and she managed to take it."
Subsequent letters from [951] see under [3473] Reports, etc.
2/16/45 Mother's ltr. to GD: "We still feel so very lost without Mr. Cayce. Surely feel sorry for Mrs. Cayce. We would enjoy your personal letters from your Diary, etc., and you may use our names or references, if you ever care to."
2/16/46 Mrs. [623] invited HLC to stay with them in ..., Ohio while he was on a lecture tour in that area.
5/17/49 Mother's letter: "Have wondered about leaving and coming to Va. Beach, but I would not leave [951] and [3473] while she is small, and [951]'s awful headaches, but they are some better."
6/11/55 "I am ashamed of myself for not writing long ago, intended to many times; thought of you all often, for instance when [951] had her 36th birthday (she is 41 now), which doubled her life from her first Cayce rdg. at age 18 when she was so sick and we were so worried."
5/01/57 Letter under 951-4, Life Rdg. Reports in re wearing the pearl: "Whatever it was, I guess it did it, for I have had fair health all these years."
2/28/67 Mrs. [951] told GD that she had moved to Calif. 6 yrs. ago because the climate helped her asthma and emphysema.
