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 of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. As we find, there are disturbing conditions that prevent the normal functioning of the body. These arise from inactivity in the nerves and muscles of the locomotories, produced from high temperature that arises from infectious forces that produce such as to cause ganglion to be destroyed, in a manner.
4. This, then, prevents the use of the nerves and muscles and tendons of the limb.
5. We find that these may be materially aided, if there is the consistent and persistent application of such as may aid the system as it rebuilds itself to supply for the body through the functioning of the system itself, through glands, through blood supply, through building of energies for the system, that which will enable the body to gain a near to normal equilibrium.
6. These as we find, then, should be administered in this way and manner:
7. First, we would begin with a thorough massage with Peanut Oil each evening, along the whole length of the spine, and especially through the lumbar and sacral area and through the limbs.
8. Let this be done not as something to be gotten through with, but prayerfully, hopefully, believing; for in the infinite power of the influence upon the physical and mental being will bring that sought for.
9. To the bodily functionings, supply the Chloride of Gold, which as we find may be better supplied vibratorially to the body, - as may function with the glandular system and aid in bringing the enlivening forces to the degenerate force as produced in nerve supplies of the body.
10. In the beginning, then, supply this through the Wet Cell Appliance, in this manner:
11. The copper plate would be attached to the 4th lumbar, or in the lumbar axis; while the nickel plate - through which the Gold passes vibratorially (in the proportions of one grain Chloride of Gold to each ounce of Distilled Water - and use at least six ounces of the Solution) - would be attached to the umbilical and lacteal duct plexus; for thirty minutes every other day, until thirty applications are made.
12. Change the Gold Solution every fifteen days. Recharge the Appliance every thirty applications, see?
13. Beginning with the second charge, use two grains of the Gold to each ounce of Distilled Water, and apply thirty minutes EACH day - that is, after the second charge of the Appliance itself, you see; which would be after the first thirty applications.
14. Do these and we will find that within a comparatively short period, - that is, for such destructive forces that have been in the body, - the conditions will be made straight.
15. In the diet, - keep a well-balanced, body-building diet; plenty of those foods that supply energies that aid especially in the muscle and nerve tissue. Plenty, then, of foods from which iodine and silicon are absorbed, or supplied to the system.
16. Do these, if we would bring the better conditions for this body.
17. Ready for questions.
18. We are through for the present.

2. 2/06/42 GD's ltr. to Mother:
   Mrs. [...] ..., Virginia
   Dear Mrs. [...]
   It is possible to get the Check Physical Reading for [2604] on Tuesday morning, the 10th, at 10:30. I'm sorry I was not here this morning to talk with you on the phone.
   We were told sometime ago that [2604] had improved considerably since following the Reading. This information came to us through Mr. Godfrey. Otherwise we have had no word. I trust that she has not had a backset.
   Unless we hear from you to the contrary, we will expect you to be here Tuesday morning for the Reading, with the questions you wish to ask. If possible, [2604] might come herself to hear the Reading. I'm sure this would be very pleasing to Mr. Cayce. Perhaps Mrs. Godfrey could come with you (if you wish).
   Trusting that we may be of service, and with kind regards, I am
   Sincerely, [signed] Gladys Davis, Secretary to Mr. Cayce
3. 2/10/42 Mother's comment and questions when coming to be present for the second reading:
   1. Would the routine and discipline in a hospital be to her advantage in hastening her recovery? If so, which one would be best? 2. Does this case require osteopathy? 3. Will there be a toe drag in the left foot? 4. And what might be done to prevent this? 5. Is it best that her mother or someone else take care of her? 5 1/2. If someone else, please suggest how to go about finding the correct person? 6. Is the Wet Cell Appliance properly made up? 7. Is it being used to best advantage? 8. Should it be continued and in the same manner?
   Child is SO much better - the right foot was worse than the left now is, but is alright. We are so grateful for what Mr. Cayce has done for her. She has been under Dr. Richardson's care from the very first.
4. 2/10/42 See 2604-2.
