1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2297].
3. Now as we find, there are disturbing conditions which prevent the better normal physical functioning; and we find that these have to do with the assimilating and the digestive system.
4. In relationships to these also there would be warnings as to activities that are causing the greater disturbances, that hinder these from reacting to ministrations that might aid or bring about the better conditions.
5. These, then, are disturbances as we find them with this body, [2297] we are speaking of, present in this room:
6. First, in the blood supply we find an activity indicating there are those influences about the body which cause a condition through the liver and the stomach itself - that continues to cause the effect to the whole bodily functionings.
7. Thus the nausea, a gnawing at times in the lower portion of the stomach and the duodenum. As the warnings would be given, this is gradually causing conditions in the liver that will cause greater conditions that will be harder to deal with.
8. The upsetting of this also causes conditions with the lower hepatic circulation. Thus the excess poisons to be eliminated, that are NOT acted upon because of the congestions in the liver area and through the stomach itself, produce uric acid in the system that will gradually affect not only the nerve system but also the muscular forces themselves - unless there are changes wrought.
9. In the nervous system we find there are those conditions
2297-1 Page 2
that are contributory causes to the disturbances in the stomach, or cakes - as it were, or thickening of the walls; not as ulcers, not even the tissue being other than just thickened. But this is the cause in the duodenum of these heavy pains that arise at times, and the abnormal appetites that arise also.
10. As we find, unless the impulses are increased that are slowing the circulation, the causes of these disturbances may not be eliminated.
11. Thus the conditions in the whole of the cerebrospinal upper dorsal area - 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th dorsal, as well as in the 9th dorsal - need correction. Also in the upper dorsals, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd, we will find the need for the segments to be moved to the LEFT, while those in the 9th dorsal will need to be to the RIGHT - rather than down or to the left.
12. If these areas were X-Rayed there would be seen these indications here of a variation in the cerebrospinal system.
13. This pressure causes nervousness, the inability at times to control the emotions of the body - and these effects arise from the conditions which exist there.
14. As to the organs themselves of the body:
15. Brain forces are very good. Discernments, and the reactions of the sensory forces, are very good. There are strains at times with the eyes. Also the throat, bronchi, lungs and larynx show the effect of the conditions in the blood supply being impoverished. Though there is not what would be called anemia, there is an impoverishment - and with a variation as to the numbers of the red blood and the white blood supply at times - as indicated by the activity through the bronchi, larynx and lungs.
16. The heart's activity shows an irregular pulse. This is more from the nerve reflexes than from any organic disturbance.
17. The organ disturbed is the liver. This condition also is contributed to, as indicated, by the reflexes from the impulses in the nervous system. This is becoming organic, unless it is changed; and necessarily produces a reflex only as yet, though this might become organic, in the liver area.
18. As we find, in making corrections - it will require the mental as well as physical reactions.
19. First, then - we would begin with osteopathic adjustments, to be taken about twice a week until six or eight are taken - before beginning the other applications.
20. Then we would begin with the use of the low electrical appliance that would carry GOLD into the system. This
2297-1 Page 3
should be the Dry Cell, two units, prepared so that there would be a connection passing through a Gold Solution in the proportions of one grain to each ounce of Distilled Water. The attachments would be made in this manner:
21. The small copper plate would be attached to the 9th dorsal - the upper portion of the 9th dorsal; while the larger nickel plate, through which the Gold Solution passes vibratorially, would be attached to the umbilical and lacteal duct center.
22. These attachments would be made each evening, for only twenty minutes in the beginning. After being used for some five to ten days, then they may be attached for thirty minutes.
23. With the increasing of the time of attaching the Appliance, we would then begin also to take the Chloride of Gold internally, WITH Bromide of Soda. Prepare two solutions, in this manner:
24. The Gold Solution would be in the proportions of one grain Chloride of Gold to one ounce of Distilled Water.
25. The Soda Solution would be in the proportions of two grains Bromide of Soda to one ounce of Distilled Water.
26. Each morning, before the meal is taken, take one drop of the Gold Solution and two drops of the Soda Solution stirred in half a glass of water. Keep this up for five days, leave off for five days, then take again for five days, and so on.
27. Throughout the period it would be best that the body refrain from any stimulants of alcoholic content; else these would cause a great deal of nausea; and if these are continued it will be very harmful - for it is the alcohol in the system that is AFFECTING the liver AND the kidneys. This MUST be left off, if the physical conditions of the body would be brought to anything near normal conditions.
28. But with the adjustments, with the taking of the properties vibratorially to increase the generative forces of the blood supply, as well as the nerve forces of the body, we find that the stimulants with alcohol content will be much more easily resisted, and the CAUSES of these desires will be eliminated - IF THE MIND is kept in a constructive way and manner!
29. Then, as to diets - keep a well balanced diet, free from too much of fats, but supply an abundance of sweets - not too much, but an abundance, but PREFERABLY in the form of fruits; and when other forms are desired, use honey.
30. These as we find will bring much nearer normal conditions for this body.
31. Ready for questions.
32. (Q) The suffering in my back is caused by what?
2297-1 Page 4
(A) The subluxations in the areas indicated, especially in the upper portion of the 9th dorsal which is the subluxation as we have indicated that needs to be shifted to a plumbness with the upper dorsal and cervical.
33. (Q) Any suggestion as to what osteopath would be best? (A) As we find, Hudgins would be well, or any of those in sympathy with the suggestions here indicated.
34. (Q) What diet would you suggest to make me gain in weight? (A) As indicated, a well balanced diet but tending towards the characters of sweets indicated. Do these and we will bring much better conditions for this body. Be consistent, be persistent. Keep away from those drinks even that are of carbonated waters. These are NOT well for the body, especially for the LIVER conditions - though these might be and are helpful at times to the kidney eliminations. But with the corrections of the subluxations, and the vibrations as well as the Gold and Soda internally, we will find that all of these conditions should improve much better. Keep the eliminations near to normal.
35. We are through for the present. Copy to Self " " Ass'n file (See extra sheet [which was enclosed] of directions for Dr. Hudgins, Bankers Trust Bldg., Norfolk, Va. Also see notation [which was enclosed] to Bill Meredith for preparing the two solutions when you are ready for them. We will get Edgar Evans Cayce to prepare the Dry Cell Appliance for you, and I will phone you when it is ready. Evidently you are not to use this until about three or four weeks of the osteopathic treatments. GD.) ents. GD.)
