This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 26th day of January, 1943, in accordance with request made by the self - [2885], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Dr. [2772].

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.]

Time of Reading 11:40 to 11:50 A. M. Eastern War Time. New York City.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2885].

3. As we find, there are conditions that disturb or prevent the best physical functioning.

4. We find the the proper diagnosis has been made, and it would be most advisable to proceed with the suggested measures, - before it has advanced or upset other disturbances, where scar tissue with accumulations cause disturbance through those conditions in the body.

5. Then, we would give that the body proceed with such measures, under the correct directions that the body may choose for such measures.

6. These would be correct - the operative measures - that will aid in bringing the balance to the body.

7. Do these things, then, - keeping the mental attitude correct, of course, in that way of the body’s being willing, and being a help and a channel of blessings to others.

8. Ready for questions.

9. (Q) Any advice as to the preparation for operative measures? (A) As we find, these are under the proper directions; and it is the proper period for the body in the present, see.

10. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 1/31/43 “I am writing you this note, for I am at a loss to understand my reading. …You wired that my reading would take place between 10:30 and 11:30 - at least asked if that would be satisfactory, and I in turn wired back, it would. At the designated hour I was at home reading ‘The Sermon on the Mount,’ knowing it would put me in a receptive mood and probably be helpful to you. I notice my reading took place between 11:40 and 11:50 - at that time I was out shopping. Perhaps the above is unimportant, however, I was under the impression that the time element was important.

“Your reading and letter suggests I follow the diagnosis and have the operation. That completely baffles me, for three years ago I was examined by two outstanding doctors who disagreed. I have used my own judgment, but still have pain, so decided to go to Johns Hopkins for observation and had my reservation for last Monday. When Dr. [2772] spoke to me about you I cancelled my reservation, feeling you would be helpful and I would not have to go to the hospital. So when you say in my reading that I have had the ‘proper diagnosis’ I am completely at a loss, for it has not taken place and as far as operation, I don’t know what there is to operate nor has the word ever been mentioned.

“I wonder if you would recheck and see where the mistake was made.”

R2. 2/3/43 EC’s letter:

Dear Mrs. [2885]

Have yours of the 31st, will be most happy to check up on the information given, yes the time does have a great deal to do with such information. Cannot set a time for this just now but will in a few days, the Secy [GD] is ill with the mumps so we are delayed with the work, but will write you and make an appointment soon as can - would like for you to make a list of questions to have asked this time, and will see if this can all be cleared up for you.

Notice on card, you were recommended by Dr. [2772]. Do not know how Mr. [437]‘s name got in to it any way.

Sorry of the delay, and hope it will not be a hardship on you in any way. Thanking you and hoping to get this cleared up for you.

With every good wish [signed] Edgar Cayce
