1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [4161] - this we have had before.
2. Now, as we find, the conditions in the body at the present, while not wholly satisfactory, are in better position for the balancing and coordinating of the mental and the physical forces than they have been for some time before.
3. While the present surroundings and conditions are well for the present, in three to four weeks we would find that to change to those environs, those surroundings that are more in accord with that which has been builded physically and mentally in the body, as to its OWN surroundings, would make for a greater tendency for faster and quicker recuperative forces.
4. These are from an over strained condition, as has been given, in and during those periods, where the excess of the nerve tension on an already over strained vitality made for the disruption between the coordination in the mental distribution of impulses to the physical reactions of the body. See? Hence those treatments that have been given, that were of the nature of injections or hypodermically given, have now reached those states where these are depended upon, for the time being.
5. The changing of environs, the changing of the conditions, the surroundings, would be more helpful, but this should NOT be done, as we find, under three to four weeks.
6. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) At that time, where would be the best place for her? (A) In the south, or in Savannah, or in those surroundings better in accord with the body's actions.
8. (Q) Are the present attendants for the patient doing their utmost to further the cure of the patient? (A) They are doing their utmost in the present, but we

would change in three to four weeks.
9. (Q) Was the narcosis treatment recently given satisfactory for the patient? (A) For the present, but there will be required other conditions in three to four weeks, as the reactions set in.
10. (Q) Is the condition from heredity, or what caused it? (A) From that as has been outlined, a weakness in the physical forces of the body, and the body passing under an extraordinary strain that made a separation, as it were, between the mental and physical balance in the body. See?
11. (Q) Any other suggestions as to further treatments? (A) Of course, this will depend entirely upon those surroundings and those conditions, for it will be diagnosed and treated differently when it is changed. We would wait until these changes come about.
12. We are through for the present. Copy to [257] " " File
