1. EC: Yes. Now, as we find, conditions are rather serious for this body. While, as we find, there will be a reviving from those conditions produced by the effect of the anaesthetic on the respiratory system, which produces great pain through the chest and upper portion of the abdomen, from the effects of strangulations by those gases, as well as the effect upon the system, these have - THROUGH their repressions - dilated those tissues that were already under suppressions through the weakening of the walls of the blood vessels, as well as impulse in the nerve centers or courses that accompany the blood supply, to such an extent that it will be found hard to produce the proper coagulation in neck and in the glands of same so that there will be any permanent relief or stoppage of the draining of vitality from the system, by the loss of not only that vitale in the plasm of the blood itself that is the leucocyte or the urea in same, but also the weakness in the supplying elements from the blood supply as to create same.
2. While these may respond, WE would find - that is, while they will still respond, see - we would find that by the use of more oxygen in the system, which may be taken through the oxygen tanks, as well as the releasing of same by taking the animated ash with the addition of the ultra-violet over those portions of the system - not direct on the incision or injured portions themselves, but rather from where the supply of blood is governed by the ganglia of the nerve system that carry it in its circulation through the portion - THESE would aid, will there be sufficient of the assimilated forces IN the body as to aid in bringing about that which will assist in creating the necessary coagulating forces to war against these drainages that are produced by this thinning of the walls of the veins and arteries that have received such an enormous set-back by the conditions that have existed in the system for times back, and have

become so much accentuated by the necessity of the strangulation of same through the anaesthesia and the gases taken, and of the incisions themselves.
3. These we would give until at least there is seen a return of the vitality for the strengthening of system, or until there is seen no need of same. This should be seen within the next seven days. He will either live then, after that, or no.
4. Ready for questions.
5. (Q) How should the animated ash be taken and in what quantity? (A) We would use the oxygen that is supplied through the regular channels for inhalation of same, see? We would also take the animated ash - an eighth grain twice a day - placed on the tongue loose and swallowed down with a little water. We would apply the ultra-violet light thirty minutes after each dose, to the lower cervical and upper dorsal area direct - from one to one and a half minutes, at least thirty-eight inches from the body - the heavy light, not the hand ultra-violet.
6. (Q) What about the diet? (A) That is doing very well. That most easily assimilated is best at the present time.
7. (Q) Will my speech be permanently effected as the result of my last operation? (A) That depends upon (in this physical experience) the reactions that may come in the system. Should the body survive the period of the seven days, then we would give further instructions.
As seen, this is NOT - as at present - a malignant condition, but if there is the inability to produce the proper character of coagulation this becomes even more of a SEVERE nature than the period as might be from the wholly malignant condition. This has been, and is, a CHARACTER of sarcoma, but not in the nature that it has grown in itself, other than the inability to produce permanent coagulation. Oxygen is the only thing we will find, in its forms, that may aid.
8. (Q) What is the direct cause of the ailment? (A) Thinning of the walls of the veins and arteries, as affect the glands in the throat, the muscle and tissue, that allowed these to form into pockets, that made for a continual DRAINING of same WITHOUT the ability of the body through its muscular reaction to draw back into circulation those that became deaden or leaden forces by passing from the regular circulation.

Do these as we have outlined. Then in that period as given, will this response be found, there MAY be aid still with or for the system.
9. We are through for the present.
