1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1129].
2. As we find in the present, there are rather acute conditions that arise from injury externally. And while there is a great shock to the body mentally, physically, the breakings or fractures in the structural portions are clear; and have begun the activity of their recuperative forces being formed in the plasm of the blood supply.
3. Unless other emergencies or other conditions arise that are not apparent in the present, WITH the proper consideration given for the elements that are lacking in the system, the body should recuperate nominally from these abrasions, these shocks, and the conditions in structural portions.
4. There is naturally a call on the system in the present for the production of the lime, calcium and silicon in same.
5. Hence, even while there are those conditions being acted upon, we would add these in the system in the manner in which assimilations may take place; so as to add the elements that have been lacking and also to aid the general forces of the body to make for the faster and the greater recuperative powers in the body in the present emergency.
6. To be sure, in the present day, and in the evening and on the morrow, will be those periods of the greater excruciating pain; from not only the bruises but the strains upon the ligaments and upon the tissues of the system in the body's adjusting itself to the various functionings for the meeting of the conditions or emergencies.
7. We would not alter the taking of the sediments in the present. And until after these conditions have in a great measure begun to adjust themselves. But DO NOT allow the drosses of the system to become so much affected by the sediments as to work greater hardships upon the body.
8. In such an emergency, where the system has had the shock
1129-1 Page 2
and where such activities have been caused in the system, we would use the C.R.C.'s - or the calomel, caroid and the vegetable elements as combined with same; that is, Calomel, Caroid, Rhubarb - C.R.C.'s. Take same of evenings, and follow these of mornings, when making for the body to rest the better.
9. Every second day, or on the evening or in the morning, we find it would be well to have an enema for the RELIEF not only of the destructive forces that become activative in the system, but for the resting of the body.
10. Also we find it would be MOST helpful to have a rub along the whole of the spine and along the limbs with equal portions (or half and half) of Olive Oil and Arnica. Of course, this should not be massaged over the whole of the area bruised, but where segments or the cerebrospinal and the locomotory forces coordinate in their activity. Heat the oil a little to pour these together and to stir. Then, shake them together and massage gently.
11. We would use Calcidin to make for easier breathing, and as an aid to the respiratory reaction from not only the activities of the iodine but the calcium in same. One or two tablets of a grain each taken during the day will be found to be most helpful.
12. In the matter of the diets, keep those that are body-building.
13. For the first two to three days, have little or no activity. Keep as quiet as may be possible.
14. If there is any reaction, or any activity that makes for disturbings - and temperature arises, then we may look for disturbing conditions. Unless these do arise, from over-excitement or overactivity, conditions should be GENERALLY on the improve.
15. Ready for questions.
16. (Q) Just how should the Calcidin be taken? (A) As indicated, about twice a day - a tablet of one grain at a time.
17. (Q) Are there any serious internal injuries? (A) As indicated, little or no serious internal injuries - as we find. Only strain and muscular forces. Little or no bleeding whatsoever internally.
18. (Q) Any suggestions regarding general health? (A) As indicated, take advantage of these conditions by the addition of those properties to the system that will be most helpful for the body. Keep the mental attitude in a constructive way and manner, of course. As much quiet and as much optimism about the
1129-1 Page 3
body as possible, by those in attendance and near. Do these, as we find; these will be the most helpful.
19. We are through for the present. Copy to Mother - thru [307] " " Ass'n file
