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

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [288]; this we have had before.

3. As we find, there are acute disturbances from both pathological and psychological conditions. These are affecting the tonsils in the present. Best to have these removed; this by the osteopathic manner, rather than just operative forces.

4. These we would do.

5. Ready for questions.

6. (Q) Should any specific preparation be made? (A) This should be done by one making such corrections.

7. (Q) Is it possible to avoid the operation? or the removal? (A) It’s possible not to have it done, and to go along - of course - applying cold and heat, and REDUCE the conditions; but under the conditions WE would advise that this be done in the manner indicated.

8. (Q) Any other advice for the body at this time? (A) Of course, it will be necessary that there be precautions, but not that anxiety as has been a part of the body activity.

9. We are through for the present.
