Now, the general attitude, the general condition of this
body is constantly on the improve. The body needs only keep
those conditions as have been outlined for same, keeping the
applicator in place, with sufficient recharging from day to
day, and well that at least twice each day, for three to ten
minutes, the applicator be laid across the eyes, as the body
rests. Not longer than this. We would also find that much
of the inflammation would be brought to the surface for
elimination by applying to the eye, every second or third
day, those properties of scraped Irish potato (old potato
- not new), and this allowed to lay on same - making heavy
packs, see, over same - laying a cloth over it. When this
becomes dry, take off and cleanse with a weak solution of
Boracic Acid, to cleanse all the impurities from the lids and
about same. This will bring relief to this portion, and the
general condition will be improved by same. Add these to the
present conditions, and keep in a consistent and a persistent
manner that same attitude, that condition for self as has
been outlined, for we will bring better conditions to this
body, and eventually we will bring sight again.
We are through for the present.

REPORTS
5/26/26 EC's letter to [
4531]: "I am sorry that we were
so long in getting to this, but I was called to Kentucky to
see my mother who I am glad to report is very much improved.
This delay made the appointments pile up on us... I should
feel, Miss [
4531], that this is a very encouraging report,
and I am in hopes that it will impress you in the same way
and manner, for from this I would have no doubt but what
eventually you are going to regain your eyesight sufficient
to do most anything you want to. You have just got to be
patient, be persistent and consistent with what is to be done
for the relief, keep your body good and strong, and your mind
set in that way that will allow the real healing powers to
operate through your body..."
6/07/26 [
4531]'s letter to EC: "I will certainly be
persistent with the treatment which you recommended in your
last reading. Although I really feel that I am continually
growing stronger as your readings says, I regret to say that
I received your reading shortly after I had had one of the
setbacks which I have been subject to since my operation. I
had hoped I would never have another of these attacks and had
not had one for two years and a half but I am happy to say
that this one was not as severe as usual and that I was only
kept in bed about five days. I think it was the result of
working too hard over my braille music and psychology. I
knew I showed a few signs of being run down but I tried to
get a little more rest but I did not get sufficient rest, so
that I finally collapsed from mental and physical exhaustion,
I suppose. So I have decided not to be so ambitious and to
acknowledge that I am not as strong as the average person..."
[[
4531]'s mother's note at end of above letter:] "[
4531]'s
attack was an epileptic convulsion, the morning your letter
arrived. Your reading helped to give her cheer."
6/11/26 EC's letter to [
4531]: "I was glad to have yours
of the 7th, and to note that you were continually growing
stronger. I am sorry to know though that you had one of your
setbacks. I believe you should take this rather as a good
omen. It shows rather a retraction - that is, the conditions
are so adjusting themselves that you are coming back nearer
to the normal, for, as you say, the attack was much lighter
and I am sure you find that the recovery from same was very
much quicker. I feel very sure that, if you keep the same
mental attitude that you are going to find a great deal of
difference.
"Yes, I think there are times when we find that our ambitions
become detrimental to our physical being, for you know
it's really the moderation in everything that attains
the greatest..."
8/79 See Source File Key #4531 for 8/79 A.R.E. NEWS article
entitled UNLOCKING THE TREASURE which quoted extensively from
earlier correspondence between Edgar Cayce and [
4531], re
Rdg. No. 4531-3. The article ended with this paragraph:
"The last reading [
4531] received stated that she would
eventually regain her sight but, as with so many people, she
did not continue to correspond with Edgar Cayce and we do
not know if this occurred. All we know, without a doubt,
is that she grew spiritually through her contact with Edgar
Cayce, the man, as well as Edgar Cayce, the psychic."
