1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2366]; this we have had before.
3. As we find, in some respects there are still some improvements. In others there is little improvement. For, as we find, these conditions in the present exist:
4. In the circulation the resistances are not being builded up as fast as they should be. There are times when there is not sufficient resistance or energy, or those vital forces supplied in that assimilated.
5. Thus we have periods when the circulation, heart's activity, liver, kidneys, even the lungs at times, all become a part of a disturbance.
6. These become hardships, then.
7. For, with the natural inability under the existent circumstance for the body - through its functionings and eliminations - to throw off the used energies or drosses created in the system, there is also the attempt to create AND eradicate the disturbances from the broken cell or tissue which has caused the inability of locomotion. Hence too great a quantity is created to be eliminated from the system.
8. That it has been felt necessary at times to administer heart stimulants, as combined with that which we have given for same, is a hardship rather than a benefit. Either use one or the other. DO NOT attempt to give any heart stimulant (such as the Digitalis or Digitol) AND the excesses of the iodine (Atomidine) in the system!
9. As we have found, and as indicated, the iodine (Atomidine) should have been sufficient - if there had been kept the massage, the rubs, as well as the setting up of the drainages by the osteopathic adjustments. And these, as we find, would be more in keeping with that necessary to aid in
2366-7 Page 2
elimination.
10. The activity of the iodine in the body from Atomidine (which is atomic iodine) is to stimulate all glandular force, to purify or cleanse same. This naturally produces also an extra quantity of refuse forces, or of used tissue that is to be eliminated from the system.
11. Consequently, in combination with the other influences, this causes greater disturbance than beneficial conditions. Hence we would either use one or the other - not both.
12. The use of the low Wet Cell Appliance has been and will be beneficial, when and if used consistently and persistently - through the creating by vibratory forces of the low electrical energies, that carry vibratorially the equalizing influence of the Gold Solution for the body. These are those activities that work with the body energizing force through the areas of the assimilating system, as from the lacteal duct plexus, through which the vibrations should enter the body. These cause those energies that stimulate nerve building fibre tissue or activity. These still show some improvement.
13. But we should still find improvements for the body, if there will be used consistently and persistently the oil massages - away from the brain, or to the central portion of the body; that from the head along the spine to the 9th and 10th dorsal, and then from the lower limbs upward to the 9th dorsal; also keeping the Wet Cell vibrations, and the osteopathic adjustments to aid in setting up drainages, - with the eliminations being kept very good.
14. Of course, the massage of the hands and feet TOWARD the body will also aid - where there is the inability of the full circulation, through the short circuiting, as it were, by pressures along the nerve centers to extremities, - bringing better use of same. This will also prevent the tendencies for the cold or tingling sensations that arise at times.
15. As to the general conditions - the diet, the activities:
16. Keep in the open as much as practical owing to the weather conditions. At such times when this is curtailed, the use of the ultra-violet will be excellent for the body.
17. These, then, we would do.
18. Ready for questions.
19. (Q) In what respects have I improved since the last reading? (A) As indicated, only in the ability of the system to absorb - through the creating of better nerve tissue - may there be improvement; so that the pressures upon the areas afflicted are being absorbed or dissolved in such a way that
2366-7 Page 3
may be eliminated from the system.
20. (Q) What dosage of the Atomidine, and just how should it be given now? (A) This depends upon whether it is to be used as the heart stimulant, or whether other things are to be used. Do not mix! If the Atomidine is taken - take one drop in half a glass of water each morning before any meal is taken, for four to five days. Then leave off. Then do this again the next week for four to five days, and leave off. Then if there are the other applications, ALL of these work together - but ALL must be administered!
21. (Q) How may I overcome forgetfulness? (A) This will be a natural reaction to the better mental reactions, as the general system is improved. For, the retention of memory and activity for the body is rather acute; and this will return as conditions improve.
22. (Q) When should I be able to return to the office? (A) This, of course, will depend upon responses that are made in the body. But in the course of time, if there is persistence - and most of all consistent reactions, in the applications and in that brought about, this should be soon.
23. (Q) When will I be capable of assuming full responsibilities? (A) This again depends upon how soon the body is able to control the reflexes in its own body. This, too, should be soon - if there is the response which the body is capable of making.
24. (Q) How may better resistances be built in the blood? (A) By the application of all those things that have been indicated - the massages, the eliminations, the building up of resistances by creating better assimilation and better eliminations for the body.
25. (Q) To what extent has the clot been absorbed? (A) About four-tenths.
26. (Q) Will it clear up entirely? (A) It should clear up entirely. Remember, the clot will be cleared entirely long before there is the full use of the body. For, as might be illustrated, these are as tubes that have collapsed along the energizing forces of ganglia that control the central nervous system, and the reflexes through sympathetic system. Thus the needs for keeping high eliminations, or above normal eliminations, to eradicate the disturbances in the body, see?
27. (Q) Were any brain cells destroyed? (A) If there had been, there would have been unconsciousness - not merely forgetfulness, at times. These are not destroyed. There are those that are not reflexing,
2366-7 Page 4
- as the inability to flex the lower extremity, or the hand; but these are not destroyed. They may be rebuilt. Do those things indicated, then; prayerfully, consistently, persistently.
