EC: This body in a normal state is good both physically and
mentally. It has been developed especially along the
physical lines. The action to the system has been a
development of the muscles in the physical body, those in the
shoulders and upper part of the body. There has been
recently, in the past four moons, an accident to the body,
which has produced an overtaxed condition to the digestive
tract of the body and has especially affected the upper end
of the colon, that which is known as the vermiform appendix,
until it has produced an inflammation. This inflammation has
set up in the appendix itself, until he has what is known as
appendicitis.
In this action, or reaction from the condition to the rest of
the body, we have this fact. It is from a recent accident
and not a thing of long standing that has grown in the body
through the action of nerves or the digestion.
Hence the best remedy to this body would be to remove the
appendix by an operation. If the body is left in the
condition it is now in, the inflammation as it is at present
would produce to the walls of the colon itself a thinning,
and the inflammation would so increase that there would be a
breaking, or what is known as a rupture.
We would advise an operation within the next few days.
