Mr. Edgar Cayce
Virginia Beach, Va.
Dear Mr. Cayce,
Recently, I came across the article telling of your wonderful
power, in the Coronet magazine and am writing you in the hope
that you can help me as you have helped others.
I have suffered from arthritis for the past six years and
whether or not due to this, I also have fiberous tumor in my
uterus, for which I have been advised by doctors to be
operated upon. If this was just an ordinary operation I
would have it done, but doctors have told me that it would
bring on an artificial menopause as the womb would also have
to be removed and as I am a single girl, I am very much in
fear of this. An operation, or rather the results would
bring me a great deal of misery and I do not know whether or
not I would be able to continue working for my living as I am
doing now. I am alone without parents and haven't anyone I
can turn to for help. Then again, it would no doubt, prevent
me from ever getting married to which every girl looks
forward.
Besides all this, I suffered from an attack of food poisoning
two years ago which left me with digestive disturbances and
altho I have been under a doctor's care I have received no
help. I am so tired of doctoring in vain and spending money
which I cannot afford, as I do not earn much because of my
poor health, that my life is just miserable.
I pray God that you will be able to help me especially
regarding the operation for the tumor. If I could only avoid
this it would make me very happy. I will be forever grateful
to you for any help and advice you can offer me as I do not
know where to turn to any more. My entire future, if I am to
have one, depends upon my regaining my health. If you will
be kind enough to answer my letter and let me know what your
fee is, I will send it by return mail. Also would like to
know whether I have to visit you personally, and if I do, I
may be able to do so sometime early in July as that is when I
get my vacation. I would, of course, write you again a few
weeks in advance so that you can arrange a definite
appointment for me.
Sincerely yours, [

Dear Sir:
I am enclosing an application for Associate Membership and
a money-order of $20. to cover same.
If you will refer to my previous letter which I sent you
recently, at the end of November or the early part of
December, you will acquaint yourself with the nature of my
illnesses for which I am seeking help. Especially am I
anxious to avoid an operation for the fibroid tumor and
also Xray treatments which was advised by one doctor and
which several other doctors have warned me against as being
more injurious to my condition than helpful, but have
advised an operation instead. I am not anxious to do either.
In the Program of Enlightenment which you sent me I note that
you request the exact address where the party receiving the
reading will be at the time of the reading. I cannot tell
you this at the present time as I would like to be at the
home of a friend who is a Rabbi, but I would have to know
the time of my reading first so that this Rabbi can arrange
to leave this hour open for me. Just as soon as you can
arrange an appointment for me I will take this matter up with
this party and let you know by return mail where I will be
at the time of the reading. My reading would have to be in
the evening as I am employed during the day and could not
devote my time to it.
Inasmuch as I do not have to travel to Virginia to your
home as I thought I would have to do when I wrote you last,
I would very much appreciate as early an appointment as
possible as I lose a great deal of blood each month because
of the tumor which has weakened me a great deal and has also
made me quite anemic.
Sincerely yours, [
4010]
3/22/44 Verification of appointment:
1. Have a fibroid tumor in my uterus which has grown to
quite a large size, giving me pain in the area around it
including my ovaries, causing a discharge and also prolonging
my menstrual period to about seven (7) days which formerly
was only three (3). The last examination I had by my doctor,
which was sometime last spring, he told me that my entire
pelvis was filled with the tumor. Sometimes I also bleed
slightly in between my periods. All this has made me become
anemic, and weak which makes me feel tired all the time.
2. Have arthritis in my fingers, hands and arms; the middle
joints of my fingers are swelled and several fingers of my
left hand are slightly turned. I also get pains in my back,
shoulders and other parts of my body. (The arthritis isn't
particular where it strikes.)
3. Suffer with digestive disturbances which I believe was
caused by food poisoning several years ago. I experience a
fullness after each meal no matter how little I eat and also
belching after any food or drink, even a glass of water. Was
told by a doctor that these disturbances may also be due to
the tumor which may be causing a pressure and also a slight
toxic condition.
Is it possible that my arthritis is due to the tumor?
1. Are my ovaries or any of my other organs affected by
the tumor?
2. Is there danger of cancer?
3. Is it possible that the arthritis is due to the tumor?
