1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes.

3. As we find, as has been indicated, there is little that may be physically accomplished for this body, with the mental attitude of the body respecting the materializations in the mental activity of the body.

4. Pathologically, a starvation of body and mind has been and is the result of these conditions.

5. These, then, should not be attempted to be altered - in the present conditions.

6. We are through.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 12/4/40 EC’s letter to [1833]:

Dear Mrs. [1833]-

Was mighty nice to see you and Dr [2046] again and was especially nice to have you come out to Scarsdale, only wish might have an entire evening to talk with the Dr.

Had your wire and then the letter of the 2nd - we as you already have that indicated - only wish could have been of some definite service - but apparently there is nothing that may be done, wish knew what to suggest, but haven’t an idea.

We arrived home alright Sunday night a bit tired but feeling fair, have been quite busy trying to catch up with a three weeks correspondence and rested enough to keep on trying where and when can.

Thanking you again only sorry that am no good here and with sincere regards to your and Dr [2046].

Sincerely [signed] Edgar Cayce

R2. 12/6/40 Mrs. [1833]‘s letter:

New York

Dear Mr. Cayce

Received the copy of Mrs. [1835]‘s reading and are grateful to you for doing it so soon. I should have told Mr. […] he could ask questions but didn’t realize you were going to do it at once. (I am enclosing my check for 10.00 which I understand is correct for this Check reading?) I wonder if you can interpret this reading for me? It seems to be the same as the former one but does not suggest any treatment to follow. She only sees the doctors & nurses - not even her husband every day. So how can we get a different train of thought started?

Does it mean there is nothing to be done - too late? I have such faith that she can be saved therefore but I’m afraid theres no time to be lost - not very many hours. It is such a tragic & desperate case - undiagnosed by about 35 doctors! Would appreciate a word from you to Mr. Hugh Lynn on the subject. Want two copies of Mr. Sugrue’s book as soon as it comes off the press. Who has it? With kindest regards, [1833]

R3. 12/9/40 EC’s letter to [1833]:

Dear Mrs. [1833]-

Thank you for yours of the 6th with enclosure. Just sorry there couldn’t be more positive encouragement. I think and feel that Mr. [1835] has been in the “valley of decision” ever since she has been ill. That is why the information presents it as - she must evince a desire to live - as you say it is hard to help when no one allowed to be near except the Dr and Nurse here is where possibly PRAYER may enter in as an helpful influence - yet - it will be necessary to over come the lack of desire on her part to make an exertion to live but possibly if all is done in a systematic concerted way may succeed. Just hope it can and will if that is best. Do not believe any thing material will help. Must be desire of the mental self to have the healing from within. Even tho produced now - for her by friends.

Do hope you and the Dr have the finest Christmas ever - tell Dr am feeling much better last few days.

With thanks and sincere good wishes

Edgar Cayce
