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 - Mother [1010]. We have the body here.
3. The physical being here grows very weary at times. The activities of heart are very much overwrought. Thus it flutters to almost a halting, yet the very mind and purpose of the entity keeps on.
4. So long as this attitude is held, there is hope. For the trust of the entity is in life, as manifested in life itself or God.
5. There are physical disorders that are in measures responsible for the weakness in the present. Most of these are overanxiety, overactiveness of the body for others.
6. And it would be well for this channel (through which this information comes) to take a lesson from these things here, and - as this body should - REST!
7. There are those conditions that are understood in the body, Mother [1010], where pressures in the colon must be kept to the minimum, else there comes greater strain on the heart and the lungs. The conditions of the thrombose from the heart, the auricles of the heart to the liver are dilated. But when the pressure is removed from the colon, these do the better.
8. The mild administrations to alleviate the pressures in the superficial or vein circulation will aid. These may be administered by the physician, not too much, and not to regularly.
9. Keep the mind constructive. Keep the colon cleansed, and we will find better conditions.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) What can I eat that will not affect the pulsation of the heart?
    (A) Those foods that are easily assimilated. Not so much of those that become too great of a laxativeness through the colon, but fruits, citrus fruits, figs, grapes and such things - with a little crisp breakfast bacon, the yolk of an egg (not the white); vegetable soups - these would be well.
    But rest.
12. We are through with this reading.

REPORTS

1. 4/21/44 [1010]'s letter to EC:
   ..., Ala. ... St.
   Dear Mr. Cayce:
   At last I got a doctor to prescribe for me the medication you suggested for me on Nov. 25 - '42 [1010-19] by Dr. Wiley - derivative of digital - cioledine. Am on the third bottle. At first took it every four hours for a week - then twice per day, sometimes only one. Am so much better. Am doing most of my work. Am resting each day, in bed by eight-thirty most of the time. Keep colon free of waste, am doing just what you suggested. The pulsation and rhythm of heart is nearly always normal. Blood pressure almost normal. Sleep a great deal better. Am so sorry they did not give it to me before, nearly 18 months after your suggestion. Mr. [1112] is not so well, so tired all the time.
   Am so glad you got the advice to slow down - rest while giving me a reading (check). We do hope you will not over exert your precious self - and Mrs. Cayce that goes for YOU TOO. For you are a very important piece of FURNITURE AROUND that very ALIVE abode. What would they do without you. I don't write BUT DO Bless and pray for ONE and ALL of you - I love every one of you and your precious family.

3. 8/30/52 Oral report by friend, Mrs. [1100]: "Did you know that Mr. [1112] passed away? Mrs. [1010] - his wife - wrote that he died with virus pneumonia shortly after her birthday - in April 1952.
   "Mrs. [1010] herself is not well at all; has a heart condition - thrombosis around her heart and a clot somewhere else..."
4. 10/10/52 Comment by Dr. D. H. Fogel, M.D: To further diagnosis of [1010] - add Auricular Fibrillation.
5. 12/14/52 Mrs. [1100] sent us this letter which she had received from Mrs. [1010]'s sister, dated 9/02/52: "[1010] passed away Friday night, 8/29/52. Her request was to have the body taken to B'ham and cremated... I have been with her for over three weeks. Two weeks before she died uremic poisoning set in and went to her brain and she lost her mind - the kidney was the main trouble.
   "Everyone that knew her loved her..."
