2/26/43 Father [
849]'s letter: "This is to ask if you will
get a check on [
1521] for me at the earliest opportunity.
This is her third day in bed with a fever that varies between
101 and 102, but we can find no other symptoms, either of
a cold or an internal upset. I suspect that it is her liver
again, and this morning [
1102] put the vibrator on her back
in lieu of a massage, which was recommended the last time
she was so disturbed, last summer in Florida. We would
give her the Castoria treatment except that she has grown
allergic to it and vomits it up as fast as she takes it in.
If Castoria is suggested would you have Muddie Cayce ask if
a substitute may be used?
"If she is no better tomorrow I will have [
1102] give her
broken doses of Syrup of Figs. Today, as yesterday, we are
giving her broken doses of senna tea. The results are fine
but the fever remains.
"If there is some specific treatment suggested which can be
transmitted by wire we'd appreciate it if you would send it
to us that way, collect. Otherwise a special delivery will
be appreciated.
"We also would like to ask if at this time and age we can
give her anything that will be helpful or will prevent
anything that might be in store for her. Should we continue
to give her Atomidine?
"She has already lost two teeth and a third one is pushing
through behind the upper front tooth that juts out. Should
this upper front tooth that juts out be pulled now, to make
room for the new one?"
1. What causes the temperature?
2. (If Castoria is suggested) Could a substitute for
Castoria be suggested, since she has become allergic to
Castoria and vomits it each time?
3. Can anything be given her at this age that will be helpful
or prevent anything harmful that might be in store for her.
4. Should Atomidine be continued?
5. Should the upper front tooth that juts out be pulled now,
to make room for the new one?
REPORTS
3/03/43 Father [
849]'s letter: "First let me thank you for
[
1521]'s reading. It hit the nail on the head as usual,
and she is now all right, though we are still keeping her
quiet and continuing the treatment. On Sat. night her
temperature shot up to 104 degrees and [
1102] thought we
had better call a doctor in case something serious had
developed. It hadn't, and the doctor just advised a gargle,
for there were no symptoms visible except a light sore
throat, but what would interest you is that we called
Dr. Ned Brush who used to teach at Mr. Greene's School for
Boys [at Va. Beach]. I had quite a talk with him and he
remembers Edgar Evans as his best pupil, and also remembers
meeting you. He said he intends to buy the book and wants
to talk to me about it. He is a nice lad - I knew he knew
about you, otherwise I would not have called him. As it
was we could give the treatment ourselves but he would have
cooperated with a reading I feel sure. Do you recall him?...
"[
1521] is much better and sends her thanks to Eddie Cayce
who 'always knows what to do for sick people.'"
