Time of Reading Cayce Hospital, 3:50 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. Virginia Beach, Va. (Physical Suggestions)

  1. EC: Yes, we have the body here. The conditions, as we find, still show a SLOW - but CONSTANT - improvement. We would keep the eliminations well up in the system; that is, ABOVE normal, both as to the excretory and secretive system; that is, through the alimentary canal, through those of the sweats, and of those as thrown off through the capillary circulation. Not so much as to endanger the body as to taking cold too easily, but as to keep the system constantly replenishing itself, to aid or build up that being thrown off. THIS will build NEW forces, new vitality, throughout the system the quicker and in the better way. Ready for questions.

  2. (Q) Give cause and treatment for dryness in mouth. (A) The tendency of secretions to be thrown off through that to meet the needs of the conditions as have existed there, and these being eliminated through other portions of the system naturally produce such. Wash mouth at such times with a weak solution of soda water.

  3. (Q) Give cause and treatment for shooting pains through body. (A) Changes taking place. These are not HARMFUL, if eliminations are exercised.

  4. (Q) Are all treatments given properly? (A) As outlined, these are very good. We would only add this as has just been given.

  5. (Q) Should any changes be made? (A) As outlined.

  6. That is all the questions regarding this body.

  7. We are through with this reading.
