TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the body of [2699], ..., Va., and existing conditions as related to the attending physician, Dr. Laibstain, and the desires of [413] and [845] to be of assistance in making the proper presentations and coordination of all available medical science, together with the information which may be obtained through this channel. If it is best that this information be presented, you will go over the body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and give the cause and correction in the vernacular of the attending physician, and outline specifically the treatment for correction. You will answer the questions that may be asked.
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here.
3. As we find, while conditions may become - and are - very serious, these should not necessarily prove to be fatal - if there will be taken into consideration all phases of the nature of the disturbance, and if there will be that precaution taken as may be outlined here, by the physician, in keeping those activities in the system as to overcome and to meet those disturbances which exist.
4. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [2699] we are speaking of:
5. The disturbances arise from an unbalanced condition in the chemical forces of the body, so active in the blood system in its assimilations as to destroy the plasm that may be said to encase the red blood cell.
6. Thus it is a plasm condition, or lack of the hemoglobin to produce in the effluvia of the plasm the coagulative forces - or the white blood is so intermingled with the red blood as to destroy the plasm, and not sufficient of that force IN the white as may be termed the leucocyte, or the leuko in the blood stream.
7. There are deficiencies in calcium, and thus the manner in which the flow of the blood plasm from the structural portions of body - portions of rib as well as of the joints is hindered.
8. As we find, the glands are thus affected by the gradual deficiency; as in the activity of the internal flow in thyroid, in liver, in the adrenals.
9. While it may be necessary for the time being to continue the occasional activity of new blood, or transfusions, we find that there should be added to the system those forces to purify the glandular system, and such foods as to supply elements that may aid the system - through the purification and the stimulated activity - to build such plasm in the blood stream.
10. Such a purification may best be had by giving small quantities (in the beginning) of ATOMIDINE (which is atomic iodine that may be taken internally).
11. Begin with two minims in half a glass of water before the morning meal, for two days.
12. Then take four minims each morning for two days.
13. Take then six minims each morning for two days.
14. Then take eight minims each morning for two days.
15. Then leave off for at least five days.
16. Then begin again, and continue in the same ratio.
17. In the meantime give beef juice as medicine.
18. Also give fresh raw vegetables, and sufficient of the cooked vegetables to satisfy - or to add sufficient of bulk AND the necessary vitamin forces for the body.
19. Have broiled calves' liver at least three days each week. If it becomes necessary, because of aversion to liver, give liver injections. But keep away from injections as much as practical.
20. Massage the body especially along the area from the beginning of the rib to the 9th dorsal, with a combination of these oils - in these proportions:

    Olive Oil.................2 tablespoonsful,
Peanut Oil................2 tablespoonsful,
Witchhazel................1 tablespoonful.

    These do not mix thoroughly, but shake well and pour in a saucer, and massage the body each evening before retiring.
21. Do these for at least the next six to ten weeks, and we would give further instructions - IF there is the use of that here indicated.
22. Ready for questions.
23. (Q) Would a spleen operation correct the condition?
    (A) Rather would this be detrimental. For there is already too great a destruction of red blood. And there is insufficient of plasm for healing. It is even a strain for the necessary healing after transfusions.
24. (Q) Was this condition caused by the fall when a child?
    (A) The fall contributed to same, but it is a chemical unbalance and a gland disturbance.
25. (Q) Is this condition what the doctors commonly call Purpura or Leukemia, and can it be checked?
    (A) Read what we have given, and call it what you please!
26. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

1. 3/17/42 Remarks by Mrs. [413], aunt of [2699]: - "I phoned Dr. Laibstain and told him I had been studying with a group for several years who were doing research on various subjects, and one the physical body. I asked if he would be interested in the information we might obtain on [2699]'s case, and he said he certainly would - and that he would listen to what we had to offer. So I made an appointment to see him at his office tomorrow night, [845] and I. The doctors call the condition Purpura, and are giving her transfusions. According to tests they found no platelets in the blood, when there is supposed to be over 200 thousand. After giving her blood transfusions they found 75 thousand only, but as soon as they are assimilated it is to be done all over again. No hope offered. An operation to put the spleen in position might correct the condition, but they can't do it since she would bleed to death."
