TEXT

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them.
2. EC: Yes, this is a very sad condition. These, as we find, are very serious disturbances. These arise from conditions concerning that the body gives in giving life.
3. If there would be any material aid in this physical condition, we must alter somewhat the attitude, spiritually and mentally. And yet these disturbances in the present are going so rapidly, these will necessitate that there be a real change, if there would be continuation of activities in this present experience.
4. We would have the application of a massage, using the Wet Cell Appliance carrying Gold, Silver, Iodine and Camphor. We would prepare this, charging the Iodine in the solution. This would be at least two pounds of Copper Sulfate, no charcoal, the rest of the ingredients in regular order.
5. Then there would be the use of the Chloride of Gold to the lumbar axis, the umbilical and lacteal duct or, on this body, the width of four fingers from the naval center directly to the right and one finger up; the small plate at the lumbar axis. This would be given for thirty minutes every third day.
6. The Silver, a two percent solution of one ounce of same and one ounce of distilled water, and one ounce of alcohol added to same to make three ounces of the solution, would be used once every third day, half an hour; the large plate at the umbilical plexus, the small plate at the lower portion of the 9th dorsal center, for thirty minutes.
7. Each one of these would follow the other, but keep them all very clean. Do have the connections taken away when not in use. Do connect at least twenty minutes before using.
8. Follow same with a massage using Peanut Oil.
9. This do. This offers, with the attitude of wishing, of desiring helpful forces, not for self, but for the baby.
10. Do this and we will make better conditions for the body.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) What was the cause of this condition?
    (A) Glands. As there was not the proper consideration given during the period of gestation, it has taken the vitality. As has been given, this is what the body gives.
13. (Q) What can I do to help in regaining the use of the voluntary muscles of my bladder and bowels?
    (A) As has been indicated, use the vibrations from the properties indicated, in the various portions of the body, following with massage along the spine and the limbs. These will aid in gaining, or will offer the aid in gaining, if the attitude is kept in a way of Creative Forces.
14. We are through with this reading.

BACKGROUND

1. 4/04/44 Letter: "In Jan. 1940 I became unable to walk and also had lost feeling from waist down. All this had come over me within about two weeks time. I had a spinal puncture and was in a hospital under the care of Dr. [...] Dr. [...] neuro-surgeon and various other leading doctors of ..., Calif. Dr. [...] finally decided that I had transverse myelitis - the previous year I had been rather tired and rundown with a new home and baby. After coming home I felt rather well and thought my general health was improved though the paralysis level stayed about the same. But in June my hands and arms began to tingle and get numb the way my feet had six months before. My husband took me to the ... Hospital at once and I was put under the care of Dr. [...]. I was also under the observation of Dr. [...]. They treated me with shots and Vitamin E. After three weeks I ret'd home, my hands improved, and the diagnosis was MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS. Since then I have had no serious 'downs'. I am very anxious to walk again and go on with my normal life."

REPORTS

1. 8/26/46 Letter from [5324]: "I have shown slight but sure improvement since using the Wet Cell Appliance recommended by EC. Mrs. [[5014]'s mother] suggested that you might suggest increasing proportionately the ingredients used in the Appliance."
2. 4/15/49 GD requested report from [5324] and [5014]'s mother.
3. 4/26/49 Note from [5014]'s mother: "I understand that she [5324] discontinued the treatment about a year ago, as she felt she had not gained by it."
