TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief for this body. You will answer the questions that may be submitted, as I ask them.
2. EC: As we find, the conditions have reached that stage where there can only be an allaying, and not a great deal of help.
3. However, we might have brought better conditions for the body if there had been applied - before all the resistance had been taken from the system in the activities as related to the stamina in the nerve impulse for flexes through the muscular forces - in those forms or natures that would have given not only the glandular response but carried through the glandular activity the impulse to prevent the deterioration through nerve impulse of the gray and white tissues.
4. Treatment for this type of disturbance should be begun before all of the activity in the glandular system has subsided.
5. Ready for questions.
6. (Q) What help may be given now, in the present?
   (A) Only those palliatives to keep the body quiet as much as practical or possible. These would be the only real helpful forces, and - of course - the mental attitude.
   Activity for help in such conditions should be begun long before they have reached such stages, if there would be any real physical help for the body.
7. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

1. 3/22/39 Dr. Seymour S. Wanderman, M.D.'s letter to EC:
   "I am very sorry but the husband [of the other patient] has become uncooperative and it is best therefore to choose another patient. The patient I wished to use originally was Mr. [1864], age 57, married. He has one child, aged 32, named [...]. He is available at the Mt. Sinai Hospital, New York City ... ... at the 3:30 to 4:30 hour on March 30th..."

REPORTS

1. 10/12/63 Jess Stearn's letter to Robert Adriance:
   "...Incidentally, coincidences still persist. I was invited to the home of a Dr. Wanderman last night. He lived at ... ..., ground floor - which I remember as your address. And in the course of conversation it developed that he not only knew Edgar Cayce well, but had attended him as a physician. He also knows Hugh Lynn, he said. So you see, Cayce was in that building, no doubt, when you were living there as a boy, and his vibrations may have rubbed off on you. What do you think of that..."
