-
EC: Yes - we have had this body before.
-
As we find, only the sedative that will act rather as the palliatives are that necessary in the present.
-
When the condition breaks, it must mean internal flow - and would soon make for the greater disturbance.
-
Those, then, that will keep the body quiet.
-
The more helpful forces are the electrical treatments of HIGH vibration.
-
We are through with this Reading.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 10/19/37 Daughter’s [1866] letter to EC:
“Mother [2646] wishes me to write to you concerning Dad’s condition and to thank you for your kindness and promptness in this last reading. Poor Dad is in a critical condition. About 4 months ago his whole right side became numb. He gradually got worse so that the pain now is almost unbearable. He feels as if a cake of ice is on his side just freezing him. The doctors say it is a generalized Arterio-Sclerosis and a heart condition and all they can do is to ease him with sedatives. They have been giving him electrical treatments, since your reading came and Dad thinks it warms him some. We are trying to do everything we can for him, for we want to keep him with us as long as we can. Fortunately he does not realize the seriousness of his condition and has been very hopeful. We all thank you for your interest and kindness.”
R2. 10/23/37 EC’s reply:
”…Mighty sorry to hear that Mr. [287] is feeling so badly … Hope he will respond to the applications, for he is a very useful man and has done a lot of good in this sin-sick world.”
R3. 1/29/38 Daughter’s letter to EC:
“Should have written to you long ago about poor father’s condition but I am so up-set these days that I don’t do anything that I should. Poor Dad is in a terrible condition. He is so weak that he is absolutely helpless. To keep his suffering down they had to give him so much medicine that he is delirious all of the time. He takes little nourishment - maybe two egg-nogs a day. Mother and I have changed doctors again - we just won’t give up. We are hoping for some miracle. While he was still himself he kept begging us to do something to help him. He wants to live. I am just heartbroken.”
R4. 2/1/38 He died at 2:00 P.M.
