  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,

  3. As we find, there are quite a number of changes in the general physical forces of this body since last we had same here.

  4. The general pressure that has continued to exist, not only in the cerebrospinal system where there were the leakages first in the blood stream, but the pressures from the frontal bone of the sternum or the lower portion of the breast bone - by the body leaning over or pressing against same - has disturbed and does disturb the circulation between the heart and liver.

  5. This condition is gradually growing serious, for it is producing a thrombosis; that is, a HARDENING of the walls of the arteries that direct the flow of the vein blood FROM the liver to the heart.

  6. This is engorging one portion of the heart, and DRAINING the other valve; producing the smothering, sinking, or dizziness, or the catching of breath at times; which, unless there is a great improvement, must not be in the very near future prove other than very detrimental to the present PHYSICAL conditions.

  7. These as we find that are being administered in the present are very well.

  8. Keep the body as quiet as is practical. Rest is the best for the body, though it may work with the hands - or else it would become unbearable to the body. But keep off the feet, and keep from pulling or washing, ironing, sweeping or the like. Keep away from these.

  9. Keep away from beef and beef things that are used, or things cooked with same.

  10. Vegetables, fruits, and those things are the better.

  11. The helpful forces, of course, are from some GENTLE adjustments through the spinal system, and the aid in LIFTING - gently - the sternum, by the pressure upon either side. These are helpful.

  12. Do that.

  13. Ready for questions.

  14. We are through with this reading.
