EC: Now, we find while the body in many ways is very good,
yet there are those conditions that bring an abnormal
reaction in the system, through the effect as is produced
upon the nervous system, so that there is that restlessness,
that nervous tendency to be continually on the move,
changing, and at times the - apparently - not proper
coordination or reaction with instructions, or with the
manner of correction, or with the ordinary reaction to that
as is given for correction in the activities of the body.
There, apparently, is not so much derangement either in
elimination or in the assimilation, yet at times these seem
to be under this continued strain through which the nerve
system, apparently, is subject to. There is PROPER
coordination through the cerebro-spinal, sympathetic and
sensory system, yet all of these at times seem to be,
apparently, with NO coordination, or no reaction to that as
is given for correction to the activities of the body. Not
that the body is unruly, or prone to find fault, or is of the
rebellious condition or nature, but apparently incapable of
gaining the proper conception, direction, of what is intended
or meant, or if it gains same (for the body is naturally
bright), it forgets in a second, or forgets by the time it's
next corrected.
Now, physically, there then must be some condition that
produces this - for medicinal properties do not meet such
conditions.
There is seen that at some period back there was a fall, a
climbing over something, where there was an injury to the
portions of the body where an irritation is produced, that
makes all this BEARING on the nerve system, and unless
corrected would eventually prove VERY detrimental to the
body, for it would operate directly with the mental attitude,
the mental abilities, and the whole coordinating forces of
the body. This in the clitoris, or where the urine passes
from the system. Hence the condition as is experienced at
times by the activity of the kidneys. The inability to
sleep, the inability to rest, comes from this same condition.
Then, the body needs the personal examination and the
personal correction of these conditions there, by the
removing of the pressure, or by the stimulating
osteopathically of those centers that GOVERN all of the
organs of the pelvis and false pelvis, and the proper
relations established between the glands and all of the nerve
centers and reflexes; else we may find very detrimental
conditions arising from this seemingly small and unnoticeable
injury, but would gradually grow. Correct these conditions
osteopathically, and we will find the body will be brought to
the normal conditions within thirty to thirty-seven days. DO
that.
(Q) Why has the body, apparently, no appetite?
(A) The inability of the body to bring proper coordinating
action for building in the system, see? See the connection,
how it operates with the nervous system for when we go to
taking into the system properties that would add to it, the
mind wanders off to do some other conditions, or some other
things, and nor desire then for food - and, as given, at
times IMPROPER assimilation, improper ELIMINATIONS, yet
NOMINALLY these are not disturbed in their ORGANISM, as yet.
Purely NERVOUS REFLEX, from conditions existent there, and in
those centers GOVERNING same, see?
(Q) How many osteopathic treatments would be necessary to
correct the condition?
(A) Sixteen.
We are through for the present.
BACKGROUND
3/09/18 Father's letter: "As we have a doctor here
sympathetic with your work, would it not be satisfactory to
secure a reading by mail? We will expect a prompt reply, as
the strain under which we have been laboring with the child
has become more or less acute?"
3/25/28 Father's letter: "Should Mr. Cayce not cover this by
his reading, voluntarily, why our child does not sleep well
and sufficiently long, and why she apparently has no
appetite, we very kindly request these questions be asked."
3/30/28 EC gave the reading and wrote suggesting that the
child be taken to Dr. L. A. Lydic (osteopath).
REPORTS
4/28/ Reply to Form C questionnaire: "Reading fits condition
very well. We expect to carry out suggestions for
improvement of [
4981]'s health."
