1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. This we have had before. Now, we find there are material changes in the physical forces of the body since last we had same here. In the general physical condition we find the body much improved in many ways. We find, however, there are still some hindrances in the various portions of the direct functioning of various functioning organs as regarding portions of the body. Yet these in themselves show a change and a change toward the betterment of physical conditions.
2. As to the way and manner to meet the needs of keeping these physical forces in the direct and correct channels would be in following closely that outline as has been given; as respecting especially the Radium pad for the correction in the blood supply and its relation to the rebuilding, in replenishing the system as goes to make up the rebuilding of used forces in the system, for hindrances to the [arm and shoulder] locomotion. Portions of the system that became deficient through the inability of certain nerve plexuses to meet the needs of conditions in the system are still under that strain as seen, as given, in the brachial forces of the system.
3. As respecting that condition regarding pregnancy, this as we find may be consummated under the existent forces and would be well for the body that these go through their normal period of development as respecting the physical forces, as is necessary in same and as respecting those conditions in the mental and in the physical being of the body that may develop from those conditions existent in the body. For as we find these may be building into that being wherein there will be brought much confidence, much consolation, much well- being in the man child born through this conception.
