These, then, are conditions as we find them with this body.
While the body [is] developing and in its formative stages -
being near the first - yes, within the first cycle [going on
7?] - an injury to the system, as relates to the activity of
the vegetative system, occurred. This injury being, then, in
the 12th dorsal region. Radiating, as it does, through the
lower portion of the solar plexus centers, has produced that
distortion in the system, so that development in every SENSE
- as far as retentive forces, or intentive forces may be
concerned - has been either accentuated in some direction,
or HINDERED to where only life itself has been retentive -
and at times THIS has been despaired of. From this, as may
be seen, the blood stream [is] very low in its resistive
forces, incapable at times to assimilate scarcely ANY food,
so that even the amount of vitamins must needs be measured,
weighed, or balanced so that the system in itself has NOT
that necessary functioning to balance same without
accumulating drosses. The activities to the locomotion being
at times active, at others nil, and the whole of the system
suffering from this strained condition. The functioning of
organs themselves becoming not only involuntary, but
voluntary - with the activities as created in the energies as
have been attempted to be supplied TO the body in its various
stages of changes.
In meeting the needs, as we find - first, in the present
conditions, we would - with very small quantities of
medicated ash - add to the system more of the oxygen as may
be liberated in the system with the activity of the
ASSIMILATED, and assimilations IN the system; at the same
time surrogating [segregating?] those elements has have been
destroyers of the plasm [plasma?] of DEVELOPMENT in and for
the physical retention in the system. NOT more than one
eighth of a GRAIN twice each day. This may be given in the
food as would be supplied the system, and most of these
necessarily must be of the pre-digested nature, altering same
only as the NECESSITIES arise.
After this has been given (the ash) for at least eight days,
we would add those of the vibrations from the altering
lights, as may be had from the ultra-violet, the
ultra-marine, and the blue - altering these as the CONDITIONS
are changed; that is, two days - three days - of each, then
repeating the cycle.
At the same time, the gentle massage should be given over the
whole system, for the body being in its developing stage, or
age, is necessary that the distribution of energies - whether
from the vibratory release in the system from the effect of
the ash with the vegetative nerve system, or that of the
intestines as related to the mesenteric. These, as they
separate - it will be necessary to change or alter the
conditions as the progress is made. This will of necessity
be consistency and persistency, would we bring the better
conditions for this body in this present experience.
Then we would change these, as necessity arise, giving this
first the opportunity, in the next ten to sixteen days.
Ready for questions.
(Q) Are food tests of any value?
(A) As is indicated from that given, often these - in this
particular case and condition - be not only MEASURED, but
weighed - as to that necessary to meet the requirements in
this particular condition; giving sufficient of each of the
[vitamins] - in their respective order - adding the proper
number of calories in the variations as arise with the body.
(Q) Are there any foods to be avoided?
(A) Those that are hard of digestion. Rather those of the
pre-digested nature, as we begin this first segregation.
Segregation, in this particular instance, meaning SEPARATING
within the vital forces of the system, that corrective
measures may be brought about to make the proper balance in
the system. Segregating those through the active forces of
carbon, or oxygen, through the decomposed carbon,
electrified, released IN the system - so as to re-VITALIZE
the energies in the blood stream. Though this may cause a
reaction in the capillary circulation, do not become alarmed,
for this must first reach retraction before we may go ahead.
GET on the right track!
(Q) Is there any connection between the condition from which
the child suffered at the age of one and her present
condition?
(A) As has been indicated - that's the beginning. The
injury here causing this distress in the mesenteric and
vegetative system, so that assimilation and vitality was
impossible to be stored through the unbalanced condition - or
the metabolism being destroyed in the forces, the blood's
energy and its storage forces come to act one upon another,
rather than coordinating one with another.
(Q) Did a recent accident in treatment affect her condition?
(A) As the retraction showed, and as was given - that not
always HAVE the applications been beneficial, but at times
even detrimental. These, in the LONG run, may be turned INTO
proper activities - but a hindrance at the time.
Do this as we have given. Then, when this has been
consistently, persistently, or - commonly termed - FAITHFULLY
adhered to, we would aid further. We are through for the
present.

4/14/83 GD's note: We never heard further from the father,
or anyone, regarding this case. I doubt if the treatment was
even attempted.
