[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. (Notes read to and transcribed by Jeanette Fitch.)]

Time of Reading 3:45 to 4:00 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, N.Y.

1. GC: You will answer the questions regarding this body as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2963].

3. Ready for questions.

4. (Q) Is it satisfactory to give him the new medicine called Nucleice Acid in a powder form, in addition to the thyroid pills which you approved? (A) Yes, this will be satisfactory if those precautions are kept, by those who have experimented with this preparation; and follow those suggestions rather closely.

5. (Q) Is any change in treatments suggested or should they be continued the same? (A) We wouldn’t change any of the treatments just yet. More quietness is being shown. While outwardly only at times does there appear to be a great deal of improvement, yet gradually there are improvements in the basic disturbances - or those that would cause disturbances through the body forces.

6. (Q) Should we continue to mash his food, or just cut it? (A) Little by little let it be prepared by him as much as possible, or masticated.

Gradually handle those situations so that more and more the entity finds it must depend on itself.

7. (Q) Any suggestions regarding the eyes, which cross occasionally? Is there any weakness? What suggestions about this? Should we see an eye doctor? (A) If there were not weaknesses there, there would not be this slipping, as it were, in the coordination of the centers in the 3rd cervical, the 1st and 2nd cervical as well as in the 3rd and 4th dorsal. There would not necessarily be needed an oculist. If those regular treatments are kept as suggested, the daily massages etc., these should gradually build and correct themselves.

8. (Q) What about his schooling? Should we wait about this, or start him in public school, or should we try and find a private school for him? (A) We would give rather that the nurse should take care of this, at least until the next term - or the next year.

9. (Q) Is it good for him to be around children? (A) We would have the association or influence of others around the body just as normal as possible.

10. (Q) What causes him to be frightened when near the family dog? Should we dispose of the dog, or try to overcome his fear? (A) This is part of a karmic condition. As we find it would be well to get rid of the dog, for this creates not only a very unfortunate environment for the body, but for the dog also - as to its usefulness.

11. (Q) Is there any suggestion regarding the more nervous condition recently? (A) Just keep the massages and the other suggested treatments, and we will find this should respond.

12. (Q) Should he be vaccinated now or wait until Spring? (A) Wait until about the 21st or 22nd of February.

13. (Q) Please advise as to handling the child, such as guiding and teaching and helping him overcome his nervousness? (A) The nurse, guiding, may make suggestions to the body as it is resting or as it is going to rest. These will help and maintain a better equilibrium in the whole general nervous system than all the medicinal properties that may be administered.

14. (Q) Is it indicated that he will “snap out of himself” or will it be a long drawn out procedure? (A) Be a long drawn out procedure for a while, then we may expect him to snap out, and then have reverses or relapses, and then gradually come back to a normal condition.

15. (Q) Any other advice for the parents in aiding this body? (A) Be patient, - with the body and with those environs; that we may make for the better conditions for all concerned in same.

16. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 10/26/43 See father’s reading 3339-1, Par. 28-A in re their past associations, and karma.

R2. 11/18/43 Mrs. […]‘s [[5022]‘s mother’s] letter: “Mrs. […] [[2963]‘s mother] told me how you had helped her boy [2963] so much…she just couldn’t say enough in praise of the wonderful help you had been to her boy, and what an improvement he had made under your care…”

R3. 7/8/44 Mother’s letter:

Dear Mr. Cayce:

David Kahn said he informed you that we were writing for a check reading. We have not written you for one - for a long time. Buddie’s […]‘s program is so extensive now that a reading at the earliest date possible will be more than appreciated - Buddie is always at home seldom away - if so from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Mondays, Wed. & Fridays - which is when he takes his lesson, otherwise he is here. So you can work the reading in at your convenience and it isn’t necessary to inform us just when you are having it.

We are giving Buddie exercising (for muscular coordination) & tutoring helping him learn reading, writing and arithmetic.

We would like to know if we should continue with your treatments in the same manner including the battery whereby he gets gold and also massage. Buddie exercises one hour a day - his school work takes an additional two hours - your treatment takes another hour. Do you think this all is too much or should we continue with this same program? We have followed your treatments consistently never letting up at all.

Is it important to eliminate sugar and salt from Buddie’s diet as one Dr. formerly directed us. He is still taking his powders which you approved of and thyroid pill.

We just had his eyes examined & find he has to wear glasses when he does his schoolwork.

You mentioned in a previous reading we would discuss the school problem a little later on. Most schools will not accept Buddie - there is a Catholic school that we believe might accept him where he would receive individual attention

• what do you think of this?

David Kahn is here and we were just discussing this matter. He wishes to be remembered.

Enclosed is a check for $10.00 for this reading.

With kindest regards to you & your family & hoping to have the pleasure of seeing you soon.

Sincerely, (Mrs.) […]

R4. 8/26/44 Mother’s letter:

Dear Mr. Cayce:

In reference to your letter of July 14th - we are looking forward with great anticipation to [2963]‘s check reading on Sept. 4th 10:30-11:30 A.M.

We would like also to know if we should continue the powders and one grain of thyroid daily.

[2963] is very fidgety & cannot stand still a minute. Do you think we are overstimulating him.

It is very difficult for him to speak - it seems he wants to say more but just cannot get his words out.

We are awaiting your reply - thank you very kindly and hoping this finds you and your family well

I remain, [2963]

R5. 1/26/50 GD’s note: Mr. [3339], father of [2963], contributed $100 to the E.C.F. campaign for making the readings available.

R6. 10/10/50 Mother of [2963] asked to be notified of N.Y. lectures and asked for publications.
