1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [528], this we have had before.
2. As we find, it has been rather late in beginning with the disturbances that have arisen.
3. These as we find are of a very subtle nature and unless there can be some activities produced in which there is assistance to the vitality of the body, in resisting the inroads of a tubercle [See 2/23/68 Dr. Wm. A. McGarey's ltr., 528-3, Par. R12.] in the nature in which it is involving not only those areas through the respiratory system but even the structural portions of the body, from which the blood supply attains or gains its division of a supply of element from which the red blood cells are builded, we find that the condition will rapidly continue to make inroads.
4. Hence we find that which may be of an addition is to disseminate - as we would find by heat and the elements that would carry those vibrations to not only the circulatory forces but through the muscular activities, and in such measures and natures to carry elements by the radial activity of their vibratory forces upon the physical body itself in the dissemination that they may be eliminated; at the same time supplying to the system those forces or influences that will add to the blood stream in such a way and manner as to give that resistance in the hemoglobin and the effluvia of the blood itself, those abilities to destroy or throw off the conditions.
5. As we would find then, over the abdominal area and especially along and over the lower portion of the lumbar, the sacral and extending to at least the lower portion of the diaphragm along the back, we would apply Castor Oil Packs. But first, before these are applied, we would sponge off the body thoroughly with a saturated soda solution - Bicarbonate of Soda, saturated solution; then apply the
528-3 Page 2
Packs - heavy oil packs, to those portions of the body.
6. We would begin immediately also with Ventriculin in small quantity; half a teaspoonful taken twice a day.
7. We would give most as the diet small quantities but often of Beef Juice; and little or none of those foods that carry any quantities of starches at all.
8. These as we find we would begin with in the present.
9. Keep up the Oil Packs for two to three hours, then rest a two or three hour period and then continue until there has been stayed this tendency for the formation of knots or clots by the blood supply attempting to make for coagulations; and thus forming in the muscular forces, and drainings upon the system at the same time, these hardened places - not only in the spinal area but in the abdominal area also.
10. These will need to be worked very fast or else we will find the activities gaining upon the strength of the body.
11. Use enemas rather than cathartics or laxatives as eliminants. These if they are given at the temperature of the body, and not too much at a time, will offer the better opportunities.
12. Ready for questions.
13. (Q) Ventriculin with or without iron? (A) Without the Iron in the present. Small quantity twice a day. If this disagrees with the body reduce the quantity, but if starches are kept away from and only Beef Juice given - not broth but Pure Beef Juice - we will find this agreeing with the body. With the Beef Juices and most of the other properties given, use Graham or Ry-Krisp or Rye Crackers or Whole Wheat Crackers as the bread - which carry little of the starches and sufficient of weight and cleansing for the system itself. But the resistance must be builded, the disseminations must be made before there is such a condition that hinders the abilities for resuscitation.
14. (Q) Is there any trouble in the chest? (A) Plenty of trouble in the chest, for there's little of the oxidization or sufficient oxygen to meet the needs. Hence we are adding to the system, by mouth as well as by dissemination, those influences to overcome these conditions. A little stimulant at times of egg cooked with whiskey would be well; with all the alcohol burned out of the whiskey first. To be sure, do not light the alcohol or whiskey with other than paper, else we would produce a condition that would be most detrimental. The yolk, not the white of the
528-3 Page 3
egg. This in addition as food values. These are very serious conditions, and are growing upon the body rapidly.
15. (Q) What causes the temperature and sweating? (A) As indicated, the tubercle. And it's attacked upon the blood stream. Hence we are to FEED the blood stream ALL the body will assimilate, see?
16. (Q) Is it best to stay in bed? (A) It can't do much else in the present! Plenty of fresh air. And if Oil of Pine is burned, or fumes of same in the room - these are helpful; as would be at times fumes from equal portions of Eucalyptol and Tincture of Benzoin - just the fumes in the room would be helpful.
17. (Q) What is burning along spine? (A) This is as indicated, the attack - or drain upon the blood-BUILDING forces of the system. Hence the necessity of the supply to the assimilating system.
18. (Q) Any further advice for the body? (A) Do these as we find in the present.
19. We are through for the present. Copy to Self - Special Delivery - Wired also " " Ass'n file
