Mr. Edgar Cayce
105th St. & Ocean,
Virginia Beach, Va.
Dear Mr. Cayce,
We are in receipt of readings of January 19th, which were
found to be very interesting and for which we thank you.
Now, there are one or two answers which are not quite clear
to me, and would appreciate your explanations of same.
Regarding question 3 [5610-6, Par. 4-A.] "Any special one you
suggest", you state "One that knows how". As you know, Dr.
Theodore Berger has been the only osteopath treating me in
New York. Since having received reading previous to this
one, Theodore Berger has given me one manipulation and his
mother, Grace Berger has been given me one manipulation
(in his absence), which I found to be quite different from
Theodore's. Am I to infer that neither Theodore nor Grace
Berger will give me the proper treatment, and that I should
seek another osteopath who will?
It is rather strange to me that the Forces did not suggest
somebody or at least sanction either one of the Berger's.
As it stands, it leaves me in a quandary as to whether to
continue and decide on receiving treatments from either
Mrs. Berger or her son.
I know you realize that at this late date, I must be
absolutely certain the osteopath knows and will follow your
instructions exactly so that I may receive due benefits.
You refer to one or three times a month. Isn't it reasonable
to believe that this might be more definite?
In view of Dr. Richardson's parting remarks that no further
treatment is required and that nature must do its work, it is
quite difficult for me to understand why it is necessary to
continue these treatments, and I hope in doing so, it will
not in any way interfere with my pregnancy.
Please explain also "...proper set-up of circulation thru
both the body and the FOETUS".
I received your Membership Application also Member Card
and will be happy to recommend the first party with whom
I come in contact that could utilize the facilities of the
Association.
With kindest regards to you and yours from Mr. [
5069] and
myself, I am
Sincerely, [

1/28/32 EC's letter to Mrs. [
5610]:
My dear Mrs. [
5610]:
In regard to yours of the 23rd, I wish it were possible for
me to talk with you about this rather than attempting to
write. It is sometimes very hard to get over just what we
want to say in a letter.
It was necessary for you to have an osteopathic specialist in
eye, ear, nose and throat, at first - but now that nature has
brought about other conditions, it is necessary for you to
have a well-rounded treatment, also taking into consideration
the effects to be brought about in the sensory system - along
with the pregnant condition treatment, so that there may be
a proper balance between the sensory system and your whole
general system. I believe that if you will go to Dr. Grace
Berger and tell her about the treatment suggested and also
what is desired to be brought about, she will know exactly
how to treat you properly so as to get the best results.
Then she might make a list of questions as to her part of
it, so that you might receive the very best service under the
existing conditions. I think you should do that. Had the
information felt it necessary for you to go to someone else,
I'm sure it would have said so. You said remember that Mrs.
Berger has been a mother, and has recently taken care of one
or two cases in your condition. I don't understand that she
is to give you special treatments for your ear trouble, but
is to CORRELATE what has ALREADY been accomplished there
WITH the changes that have come about in your system. One or
two such treatments a month I'm sure would be most helpful.
The variation from one to three times a month would depend
entirely upon the reactions that come to your system from
the treatments, and the attitude mentally you hold respecting
your condition and the circumstances surrounding you. I
understand that if you go to Dr. Berger with the attitude
that it won't amount to anything, you needn't expect anything
at all - but you should take sufficient number, whether
it's one or three times a month, to keep yourself in
the best physical condition. Dr. Richardson's remarks as
to your treatment were in reference to the ear condition
specifically; but remember, when there are so MANY changes
going on in your system, all portions of the body must supply
some part to that change taking place. Hence the necessity
of having treatments to coordinate and correlate the
condition, so that your treatments from Dr. Richardson may
still have the desired effect. As to the proper set-up of
circulation through both the body and the foetus, I think Dr.
Berger will be better able to explain that to you - but it is
the establishing of a coordinating circulation in your body
with that of the developing child, and I think a great many
people will agree that an osteopathic treatment is the most
HELPFUL of any treatment in the world for doing just that.
I hope this explanation is satisfactory, for I do so want to
get the very best possible attention during this time, and
not lose all that you have gained by your treatments down
here.
With love and kindest regards to you both from all, I am
Sincerely, EC:GD
4/27/32 Mrs. [
5610]'s husband [
5609] obtained his fifth
reading.
6/13/32 EC wrote a congratulatory letter on the birth of
their baby daughter on
5/25/32.
8/23/32 Husband [
5609]'s letter: "...Mrs. [
5610] is very
busy these days taking care of our daughter, who is getting
along very nicely. I regret to say that I cannot give you
the same good news about Mrs. [
5610], but when I receive
my next reading, hope you will permit me to include a few
questions in her behalf..."
8/24/32 EC's letter: "...I am glad that the young lady
is coming along so nicely but sorry that Mrs. [
5610] is not
feeling so well. You certainly may include the questions for
her in the next reading..."
GD's Note: On subsequent trips to New York EC talked
to Mrs. [
5610] and her husband on the phone and she
reported that she was getting along very nicely.
4/20/34 EC's letter to Mrs. [
5610] and her husband:
"...It's been some time since we have had a word from
you, and during our recent visit there we didn't have the
opportunity to get in touch with you - as we had an incoming
phone but no outgoing one. We would like very much to hear
from you. Know that we don't feel that we have so many
friends that we can afford to lose a single one. And you
know we think a great deal of you both. We have never had
the pleasure of seeing the young lady, but we hope she is
getting along fine - and that this finds both of you well.
It would be fine if you could bring her down to the Beach
sometime during the summer. You won't find a better place,
and I'm sure there is no place where they would be glader to
see you. Remember, our Congress meets the last part of June,
and we would like to have you here with us.
"Be sure and let us hear from you..."
