Time of Reading 3:50 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, W. Va.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions, also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.

2. EC: Now, we find there are abnormal conditions with this body. Many of these have been and are of long standing. They have to do, from the beginning, with the eliminations and the excesses as are become as drosses in portions of the system, producing the conditions in the extremities and in the locomotaries, and in various muscular portions of the body.

3. Now, these are conditions as we find them in this body, [133], we are speaking of. First:

4. The blood supply surcharged, or shows the effects of the poisons or toxins as are left in the system from time to time, by improper functioning of both liver and kidneys. Kidneys leaving then that toxin that causes the uremic poisoning, or the effect to the muscular forces and the nerve centers causing distress. The liver that affecting and disturbing the digestive system, and the stomach and eliminations, through mesenteric system.

5. IN THE NERVE SYSTEM, the body becomes overtaxed by these many strains, yet physically this becomes submerged in many ways.

6. IN THE FUNCTIONING OF THE ORGANS THEMSELVES, these distresses affect same in the various manners, for little has been done, either through physical action or regard taken for the system and its physical condition through the diet for the body.

7. Now these conditions may be assisted and corrected, provided the care, the attention is given and persistence and consistent action as given is carried out.

8. First, we would prepare this for the body:

9. To one gallon of rain water, add 8 ounces of Fresh Wild Cherry Bark, see? Reduce by simmering (not boiling) to one quart. Strain while warm. Dissolve 6 ounces of sugar in 6 ounces of hot water, see? Add to solution, or to the Wild Cherry Bark, and reduce to the quart again by simmering (not boiling). Then add to that, this:

Syrup of Sarsaparilla…2 ounces, Fluid Extract Yellow Dock Root…1/2 ounce, Fluid Extract Stillingia…1/2 ounce, Fluid Extract Polk Root…1/4 ounce, Iodide of Potassium…30 grains, Bromide of Potassium…20 grains, Elixia Calisaya…2 ounces, Essence of Peppermint…3 minums.

Shake the solution well together, (add in order given). Dose of this would be teaspoonful three times each day, taken before meals, see?

10. Let the diet be principally those of gruels, until these whole properties are taken. No meats or heavy foods, see? Wild game or fish may be eaten. Whole wheat breads, gruels, brans, cereals, fruits of any character that agrees with system. Not too many vegetables, only those that may be eaten green. No white bread, nor very much sugar. No stimulants of coffee or tea. Milk may be drunk warm, see?

11. For the conditions in limbs and extremities, use when the pain is severe a saturated solution of Epsom Salts, wrung out in hot cloth and bound about the limbs or joints, or across the small of the back.

12. At least every other day, use the application of the Violet Ray over the cerebro-spinal system. Do that, consistently and persistently. We will bring the normal conditions for this body.

13. We are through.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 6/5/28 Letter: “I received your letter [form letter re. building fund for Cayce Hospital] and I am sorrow can’t help you. But if you can tell me what can be done for me - I suffer all the time with my legs and feet and kidneys and can’t walk - if could only walk I sure would help you. But the way it is I can’t help myself. Would you advise me to go to Hot Springs or do you think I could be done any good if would come to your hospital?”

“P.S. Dr. (Cayce), at the time you gave me that other reading I didn’t have the means to carry it all out. Didn’t have a violet ray. But I think I can manage it all rite this time. I believe I am a little better than I was when I wrote to you the other time, unless it is my kidneys and that bearing down on my bladder. My right leg is some better. The left one isn’t. Tell me if I have used anything that has helped me.”

R2. 6/18/28 Letter: “I surely appreciate your willingness to help me. Mr. Cayce, I won’t have much to pay you at the present time but if you can help me to get rid of this rheumatism in my legs, hips and feet I sure will pay you… Examine my kidneys good, bladder, for the doctors has wanted to remove my left kidney. Do you think that the doctor could give me serum treatment and do me any good?”

R3. 6/25/28 Letter: “I will be at home, either in my wheel chair or in bed. I also want to know whether I have used anything that has done me any good, if so let me know what it is. The doctor gave me some serum treatments that I thought done me some good. You can give me reading and hold it for can’t send any money until after Sat. for that is my husband’s pay day.
