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, answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [5128].
3. In giving the interpretation of the disturbance here: While this is not understood except by few, we find that with a great deal of persistence and consistence there may be brought nearer to normal reactions in the body.
4. There has been a complication of disturbances, which has closed the coordination of the auditory forces with the reflexes of the brain and with the body itself.
5. From a pressure which has existed, we find that with the operative measures lesions were formed. These have gradually changed.
6. We find that it would be better if the body were kept close to the mother, for at least another three to four years. For we will find that these are the better administrations; and if there is not the teaching in the present, it would be hard to teach the body after it has reached its eighth, ninth or tenth year, yet much more may be gained through these applications:
7. First, we would give that there be regular periods when there would be osteopathic manipulations given by an eye, ear, nose and throat specialist (of the osteopathic school). These, as we find, are to break up those lesions or adhesions in the lacteal duct area and in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd cervicals and in the lower dorsal and through the coccyx area. These should not be too severe, but gradually work towards (within the next twelve months), the raising of the Eustachian tube. These should also be used regularly:

vibratorially into the body. The connections would be prepared a little bit differently for this body, though the regular charge should be used. The larger plate through which the Gold Solution passes vibratorially (in the proportions of one grain Chloride of Gold Sodium, to each ounce of distilled water, and use at least three ounces) would be attached each day for twenty minutes to the umbilical and lacteal duct, which on this body will be the width of the mother's three fingers to the right from the navel center, and one finger up from that point. The small copper plate (now, this is the variation) would be attached one day to the left portion of that area back of the ear, or the mastoid area; the next day on the right. The next day attach again to the left, and so on; each day changing the application of this plate.
9. This Wet Cell treatment should not begin until there has been at least the second series of the osteopathic adjustments made.
10. In giving the treatments with the Wet Cell Appliance, use this period each day, as the period when there will be suggestions made to the body: that it, the body, will - in the influences brought to bear - interpret, understand and make application of these suggestions. Whether these are consciously heard by the body or not, make them audible. Eventually we will find that the body will respond.
11. The Appliance is to be recharged every thirty days.
12. Do take the Gold Solution connections out of the bottle when not attached to the body. Do keep the anodes clean. Do make positive connections; this may preferably be done with tape, adhesive tape, to hold the plate firmly in place. Keep the attachment plates very clean.
13. Each day following the Appliance treatment, do give the body a massage with Cocoa Butter. This should be done by the mother. This should be begun at the area over the mastoid, around the chin, forehead, temple; then throat, then along the spine; very gently, yet sufficient for the body to absorb the properties. Do this very thoroughly. Take the time, and use this as the period for conversation. Keeping up this conversation, it will bring corrective measures to the body. Go all the way, of course, to the end of the spine.
14. In the diet, add often the raw vegetables, as: watercress, celery, lettuce, carrots; these preferably grated, but don't lose the juices in the preparation. Oft prepare them with gelatin.
15. These, if they will be kept, will bring nearer to normal conditions. There will be periods when it will be necessary

for changes to be wrought. These we would make (the suggestions for changes in treatment) at least every six to eight months apart.
16. The osteopathic treatments we should have for six or eight, then a rest period from them for two or three weeks, then again having another period, and so on.
17. After the second series, begin with the Wet Cell Appliance - which is to make the connections of the nerves so that the hearing, the speech, all the reflexes (see, the body doesn't taste properly either, at present) will be brought to nearer normalcy.
18. Ready for questions.
19. (Q) What was the original cause of the pressure which brought about this condition? (A) The pressures produced by an injury to the coccyx end of spine.
20. (Q) Can you suggest an osteopathic specialist to carry out these treatments? (A) Dr. Smith, Baltimore.
21. (Q) Any other advice? (A) Do these and we will bring better conditions. Be patient, be very cheerful. Do teach the body to pray often, as the mother does pray with the body.
