TEXT

1. EC: Yes - the conditions we find not so good as respecting the physical forces of the body. The applications as have been and are being applied for the body we find are, in the manner, relieving the forces; yet these are not the conditions that would aid - save allowing the body to, through its own activity, bring resuscitating forces for the system. These administrations are as effective as those that MAY be administered, and the condition is well understood by those in charge. While, were different circumstances surrounding the body, there might be applied other conditions that would prove more beneficial - the heart's action and the pain and distress as is brought about are more of retraction than of conditions that are harmful, and with the stimuli as is being used, and with those applications OF the narcotic to that portion where the distress appears, is only allaying the condition.
2. We would, across the abdomen - and especially over the solar plexus - apply hot, or warm, packs of antiphlogistin, see? Also, across the liver region, we would use heavy packs - warmed, and kept warm - of castor oil, and we will find, as the doses of the sedatives are reduced, the conditions will assist much in relieving those distresses as are produced. Do that.
3. (Q) What is the cause of the trouble she is suffering with?
   (A) Those of auto-intoxications that are hindering proper eliminations, and pressure produced on varied portions of the system by this allaying of nominal elimination.
4. (Q) What diet will aid her?
   (A) That that is most palatable for the body. In this particular condition, of course, that which would be the more easily assimilated by the body would be the better; with, of course, those of stimuli to the circulation without additional carbons added to the body.
5. (Q) Can her suffering be relieved quickly? and how?
   (A) As has been outlined, these are kept in abeyance, and by the addition of those conditions as suggested with that being given, we will find, as the general condition is assisted in nature asserting itself, and by the addition of the allaying - or the activity of those organs that will be assisted through the applications as given - will bring the relief, not quickly, other than that as has been given, but in the manner as has been outlined, under varied conditions others might be suggested. Under the PRESENT condition, do as has been given, if we would bring the best results. We are through for the present.
