Deaceness Hosp., Time of Reading Pilgrim Road, 10:30 to 10:40 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. Boston, Mass. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have those conditions and those records here that are being examined in the present.

2. All these conditions - that arise from the effects of disturbances that cause more and more inroads into the vital forces of the body, as to structural as well as to locomotion and activities through the assimilating system - must be taken into consideration.

3. As we find, there may or may not be the necessity for further operative forces. This would depend upon the manner in which the reactions of the applications that are being considered will react upon destructive forces that arise from inroads, and inactivity of those portions of the body that have been indicated are in rebellious force against the better physical functioning.

4. If there would be added either the Essence of Mullein (in a Mullein Tea), or the Ventriculin, and if there is the ability to give sufficient reaction with the deeper electrical rays - as the deep therapy from the Infra-Red, these as we find would respond the better.

5. These are the conditions then as we find that are apparent.

6. If there is the continuation of temperature, indicating the destruction of the red blood cellular forces and a continual reduction in the hormones or plasms that make for the ability to segregate and discharge from the system the affected portions, then it would become necessary for operative measures.

7. But as we find, in either case, if those applications as indicated are used, these may have the better opportunity.

8. And as we find the deep or Infra-Red would be more effective than even the X-Ray, for this - owing to the very thinness of the plasm - too easily becomes effective to the lymph and produces scar reaction that would be more harmful than helpful.

9. While the Infra-Red produces a character of temperature, this because of the very nature of same is a destructive force to the humor that is active in the system; especially if the elements are added as indicated (the Mullein Tea or the Ventriculin) that would act with the blood stream in the building of constructive forces for the plasmatic reaction in the lymph, if the Infra-Red is used.

10. Then we would do that; and necessarily, under the circumstances, this must depend upon those determinations as may be made by the physician in charge. These are merely then suggestions, but are to be verified or rejected by those using same.

11. As to the attitudes of those that wait upon the body - as to the attitudes of those to whom the body is near and dear in material things:

12. Much might be said respecting the necessity of not only confidence in the activities of those in charge but respecting the greater relying upon the spiritual forces that lend impetus to influences and forces about a living organism; and the re-dedicating of self to the spiritual activities, to those influences that arise from Creative Energies or God-force and influence in the experience of every one. These we would adhere to, for those assurances that have been given - as not willing that any soul shall perish but with each temptation, with each weakness, there is the assurance of strength - if there is the application of self in consecration of the efforts in material things.

13. Meditate, then, and leave it in the hands of Him.

14. We are through for the present.

R1. 7/26/37 Letter from mother of [1403]: “My dear Mr. Cayce: You may be interested to know that [1403] was operated upon the 12th of July and died the next day. The tumor developed so fast and he was so miserable he wanted to get relief.

“I am so sorry we did not hear of you two years ago. I feel sure you might have helped him. We did all we could in getting medical aid. Perhaps God had some good reason for taking him.

“I pray that you may continue to do your good work and later receive your reward…”

During this time he has had two major operations, and another has been suggested. We would like to know if it would be wise for him to go through another operation and whether or not there is any help for him. (Mrs. [1348] told us of the material help you gave in illness of their son [1215].)”
