1. EC: Conditions are not so good. These are near to the separations, for conditions are developing - and senility for the activity of organs is indicated.
2. The relief as we find for the intense suffering would be with a hypnotic, under the direction of a physician; following same with a general elimination produced by the use of the colon irrigation and the general massage.
3. These as we find would offer the greater relief, making the body the easier, and making the general conditions about the body the better.
4. These we would do.
5. (Q) Is there any immediate danger? (A) These are GRADUALLY growing the weaker, as we find.
6. (Q) What causes pains in my head, and what should be done for it? (A) The pressure upon the general nervous system, and as we find - as indicated - a hypnotic would be preferable to a narcotic, and would ease the body the better and make for the less of congestions that may be aided by the general massage (osteopathically given as we find would be the preferable).
7. (Q) What causes pains in my knee and leg and what should be done for it? (A) These as we find arise from the settlings of poisons, or poor eliminations. Hence the necessity for the colon irrigations to remove fecal forces and throw off, as it were, the greater amount of poisons for the body.
8. (Q) What causes the nervous condition, and what causes me to worry as I do? (A) It's the general breaking up of the coordinations throughout the body-forces. Hence the natural ANXIETY of the body, physically, as

related to the mental and spiritual forces of same. The natural anxiety that arises is a portion of the whole condition. If changes are set up - but should there be?
9. (Q) Is there any danger in moving the body from the apartment? (A) No DANGER; it will be eventually moved.
10. (Q) Did the fall I had, out of a swing, when a child, hurting my head, cause an injury, causing a nervous condition all these years? (A) This, of course, is - Remember that Life as a whole is as one. If no time or no space - and these are elemental facts - then the EFFECT of same is being re-enacted as it were into the body at present, but it is the general debilitation that is setting in. This may be a few weeks; it may be a few months; but these are beginning.
11. (Q) Please give specific diet. (A) Whatever the body desires, provided it is of easy assimilation. That as is the most strengthening would be better for the body. Keep to the alkalines, to be sure, but whatever the body desires, prepare it in that way and manner as it desires.
12. (Q) I have adhesions in my left side and could that condition be cured? (A) These may be aided by the massages, provided they are not attempted to be broken up too suddenly. But these will all become a part of the general condition.
13. (Q) Could whole wheat bread or raw vegetables be eaten on account of this condition? (A) Partially; not too much at a time but partially. Do these as we find for the greater relief. Of course, after the massage, a help will be a little electric vibration or an ionizing as it were of the vital forces to strengthen the body. These may be had through low electrical vibrations, as from the very LOW electrical vibration - or of the violet ray, but not too much of same. These preferably not as sparklers, not as the bulb appliance but as equalized for the body through holding the rod applicator - as electricity for the body, but very small quantities of it, and not too long - but these will help.
