Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.

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, [3099].
3. As we find, the disturbances here are of the progressive nature; that is, the condition has become constitutional, in that the body adjusts itself in many ways to the weaknesses and these continue to sap the vitality and strength from the nerves that control the tendons and muscles of the locomotories. This is indicated in the lower limbs as well as, now, beginning in the arms; and gradually, unless retarded, there will be the rolling up or folding up of the body-forces in ANY attempt to use the body muscular forces.
4. These, as we find, are of a glandular nature. They are not karmic, nor a hereditary condition - but the use of those things that set the glands to react upon themselves, that supply to the nerve force itself the energies; as would be the tensile strength taken from a wire over which impulses of electrical forces might move.
5. For, the nerves are but the wires to the body forces themselves. And, through lack of generative power within the system, or the glands from which the secretions are taken for the continuing of strength in same, these become as burned wires, or cords, or threads through the body, and gradually fail to supply muscular forces, or the strength to the muscles and tendons through which these nerve energies pass.
6. Naturally, with the supply of the various elements that have been indicated to stay this, - as in the giving of certain elements lately, - these tended to work the opposite. For, they supplied rather the fires that destroyed the ganglia through which there was the supplying of the muscles or nerve energies to the arms themselves, from the areas in the brachial centers of the body, between the sympathetic and the cerebrospinal supply.
7. These have begun to weaken even that activity to the spinal cord itself.
8. The conditions may or may not respond. It will depend upon the determination of the body-mind of this entity to live, to supply, to call on those energies of the divine within self to UNITE in the efforts to stay the energies in the body-force.
9. Then there would be supplied those elements that, if assimilated, may aid in supplying - through the mind forces and the body-energies - the physical reactions to the body.
10. We would use the vibrations of Gold, Silver and Iodine, as well as taking also internally - but very seldom - a small quantity of the Gold.
11. These should be supplied through the Wet Cell Appliance.
12. The charging solution for the Wet Cell Appliance should be double strength; that is, to the two gallons of Distilled Water, add - in the order named - in the crock, you see:

    Copper Sulfate...........3 pounds,
Sulfuric Acid C.P........2 ounces,
Zinc.....................6 drams,
Willow Charcoal........1/2 pound.

    The Appliance would be attached each day for thirty minutes, one day carrying the Gold (in the proportions of one grain Chloride of Gold to each ounce of Distilled Water, but use at least three ounces of the solution), the next day carrying the Silver (one ounce of a two percent Nitrate of Silver Solution in three ounces of Distilled Water), and the next day carrying Atomidine - which is atomic iodine (one ounce of Atomidine to two ounces of Distilled Water).
13. The large nickel plate, through which the Solution passes vibratorially, would always be attached to the area on this body, about three fingers from the navel center to the right, and three fingers up from that point. This is at the lower portion of the gall duct area and the lacteal duct plexus, on this particular body, this is where the larger plate should always be attached, for each solution.
14. But the attachments for the copper plate should vary. When using the Gold Solution, attach the copper plate at the 9th dorsal. When using the Silver Solution, attach it at the upper portion of the 4th lumbar. When using the Atomidine, make the copper attachment at the 2nd dorsal center, the lower portion of the 2nd dorsal center - or between the 2nd and the 3rd dorsal.
15. Do not use the same connections for the Gold as for the Silver or for the Atomidine. Neither use the same connections in the container that carries the solution to be charged and discharged into the body-forces through the vibratory system. These should be removed each time after being used, from the bottles themselves. These should be cleansed thoroughly after they are used. Attach them to the Appliance about twenty minutes before the attachments are to be made to the body. Use the Gold one day, the Silver the next, the Atomidine the next, and so on.
16. The Appliance should be recharged every thirty days; that is, the charging solution should be renewed.
17. Change each of the Solutions in the bottles after it has been used fifteen times; that is, each Solution is good for fifteen applications to the body, see? then it should be changed - that is, a new solution made.
18. At least every other day there should be a gentle massage, not the heavy therapy but a gentle massage that would stimulate the activity of the ganglia at each center along the spinal system, as well as stimulating of the ganglia in the frontal portions of the body - of the lymph centers - as to distribute this energy through the system. Thus sufficient of the cellular forces may be enlivened, in the flow of the lymph as well as the corpuscle activity in the blood stream, with these energies, to revivify and build back the resistance and strength to the body.
19. These massages should be osteopathically administered, followed with an oil rub - using one part tungsten [GD's note: I think he means lamp oil or plain kerosene.] oil and five parts peanut oil. Shake these thoroughly together and massage especially in those areas where the plates to the Appliance are attached to the body. This should be done at least every other day.
20. Prepare two solutions, and keep these separate until they are to be taken.
21. Add one grain Chloride of Gold to one ounce of Distilled Water. This would be kept as one solution (not the same that is being used in the Appliance, but keep this separate).
22. Add three grains of Sodium Bicarbonate to one ounce of Distilled Water. This would be the other solution.
23. Once each week - not oftener - take one drop of the Gold Solution and two drops of the Soda Solution. Stir these in a glass of water and drink immediately.
24. Keep a diet that is body building, carrying especially the vitamin A, D, B-1 and B-Complex; but let these be in the foods, NOT supplemented for the body, for this should all work with the assimilating system. Eat the foods that carry these vitamins, rather than adding the Vitamins themselves - in supplementary amounts - for this body.
25. Do keep eliminations regular. If there is the lack of eliminations daily, use the colonics rather than laxatives or purgatives. And when any laxative is given, let it be - for this body - vegetable in its base, rather than mineral.
26. These, with the determination in self - to WANT to depend upon, to look to, the divine within - offer the better opportunities and should bring help for this body.
27. Ready for questions.
28. (Q) If the body responds to this treatment, will she have the use of hands again?
    (A) Have the use of hands and legs and feet and all, if she wants it! But this she must make up in her own mind, and the determination that it will be used for good and not for [3099] alone.
29. (Q) When Glycocoll is supposed to be so useful in such muscular conditions, why did it cause this body to appear poisoned from it when given for the first time?
    (A) This has been indicated.
    Do these things, if we would bring the OPPORTUNITY for this body to respond.
30. We are through with this Reading.

    Two copies (one to Self, one to Dr. Marion Dick)
    Copy to Ass'n file
    (7/19/43 GD's note: See extra sheet of directions [which was enclosed] to be sent to Mr. A. M. Godfrey, 2709 Lafayette Blvd., Norfolk, Va., so he can prepare the Wet Cell Appliance for use in your particular case.
    Please let us have the technical name of your ailment, according to the doctors' diagnosis, so we may properly index it in medical terms for our records.)

BACKGROUND

1. 6/08/43 Dr. Marion Dick's letter: "...Six years ago Mrs. [3099] was a patient of mine and at that time used to walk to my office. Since she has been unable to walk I haven't treated her until on Saturday eve. June 5th she told her husband she would like to see me again, as she felt sure I would like something to help her. I took your book, THERE IS A RIVER, along with me and left it with her. She has been thrilled with it and would like to have the reading. As far as medical or osteopathic science knows today, there is no cure for her condition, but after seeing the spectacular results on Mrs. [2956] from Milton, Mass., I am beginning to believe that the days of miracles are not past. She left for home feeling not only well but happy..."
2. Questions submitted by Mrs. [3099]:
   1. Can you give me hope of use of arms and legs so I can walk again? 2. Will I be able to have the use of my hands again? 3. If there is no cure, what treatment might retard the downward progress of the disease? 4. When Glycocoll is supposed to be so useful in Muscular Dystrophy, why did it cause this body to appear poisoned from it when given for the first time? 5. What is the cause of this condition? 6. What diet would be best? 7. Which would be best, another osteopath or the physical therapist under Dr. Dick's direction (that is, if this type treatment is recommended)? 8. About how long a time would elapse before we can expect to see some improvement?
