This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 8th day of December, 1943, in accordance with request made by the self - Miss [3444], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research and Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 3:40 to 3:45 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [3444].

2. As we find while conditions are good at times, there are those weaknesses and tendencies that unless there are those applications as may supply energies to the body in sufficient quantity to build up the body, these will finally begin to become atrophied or cause a weakening of the nerves and muscular forces from the lower portion of the cerebrospinal system to the toes themselves. There are pressures existent first in the sacral and coccyx area. These should be corrected osteopathically. These should be only as a part of the treatment, though, but we would take at least eight to ten to twelve of such treatments, and these we would have done properly.

3. After these have been taken, we would begin using the Wet Cell Appliance, regular charge, carrying Gold vibratorially to the body - the regular strength Gold Solution.

4. The small plate should be attached at the 4th lumbar, while the larger plate carrying the Gold should be attached at the umbilical and lacteal duct plexus; which for this body would be three fingers directly from the navel center to the right and two fingers up from that point. Attach the Appliance for thirty minutes each day.

5. Follow same with a massage over the hips and limbs, the lower portion of the spine and then the limbs, using cocoa butter for this body.

6. Do these, if we would find better conditions for this body; else we will find that the activities throughout the body will become very disturbing.

7. The osteopathic adjustments would be made about twice each week. When at least half of these adjustments have been made, we would begin the Wet Cell Appliance.

8. (Q) Is there any special diet I should have? (A) Include a great deal of the vitamins that build up the body. Take KalDak once each day, for this will add iron and phosphorous in the correct proportions. Take it in milk, a level teaspoonful once each day at a regular period.

9. (Q) Are there any restricted activities? (A) Not after beginning the use of the Appliance.

10. (Q) Has it been wise to discontinue taking medicine? (A) It has been very wise, for these are only adding to the conditions.

11. (Q) If treatments are carefully followed, is it indicated how long it will be before results will appear? (A) Results should appear within six weeks. There should be a great deal of improvement within eight to ten weeks, so the body can be more active.

12. We are through with this reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 4/24/44 Miss [3444] wrote: “On Dec. 8, 1943 you gave me a reading which I followed to a ‘T’ until February, then I seemed to turn for the worse, and having no alternative I turned to medical aid.

“What really puzzles me, Mr. Cayce, is that in your reading you gave me no definition of my illness, but doctors describe it as a vicious case of rheumatoid arthritis.

“My hands and legs ache terribly, and I’m in such dire need of help that I’m turning to you in desperation, with great hopes of perhaps your aiding me in some way.

“Won’t you please help me?

“Hoping this letter will not be ignored,” Sincerely, [3444]

R2. 5/3/44 EC wrote her: “We are making the appointment for your check reading for the afternoon of July 8, 1944, EWT, between 3:30-4:30.

“In looking over your reading I see that you were given the Wet Cell Appliance with specific directions as to how it should be attached. Could it be that the small plate is not being attached to the 4th lumbar - or possibly the large plate is not being attached where it should be? This, of course, is very important. The rest of the treatment which was outlined seems very simple. I suggest that you check up on these two things in particular and continue to follow the suggestions given, until the time for your check reading which we have placed as early as possible on our calendar.

“We would like to have a detailed report on the manner in which you have followed the treatments outlined in your reading, and also a report on those suggestions given you by medical aid. Such reports are vitally important to our records for research work as well as being able to advise you in carrying out the reading.

“Thanking you for your cooperation, I am”

Sincerely, Edgar Cayce EC:mv

R3. 7/8/44 Miss [3444]‘s letter: “On July 8th I will be at home at the above address.

“The Wet Cell Appliance treatment has been carried out as you suggested, which I checked once again with my osteopath, and I used KalDak without fail every day.

“I am receiving two injections at each visit twice a week. One is injected into the vein and the other into the muscle, by my medical doctor; also taking vitamin pills, also iodine drops once a day.

“This covers my health activity since my last reading.

“Thank you for the early appointment.”

Questions: What is the cause of the hoarseness in my throat and what can be done for it? What is the nature of my illness and is there a possibility of regaining perfect health from this illness? Is the doctor I attend on the right track to cure me?

R4. 7/8/44 Edgar Cayce gave her the check physical reading 3444-2.

Background

B1. 10/12/43 Miss [3444] wrote Edgar Cayce after reading THERE IS A RIVER by Thomas Sugrue: “I’m a young girl 22 years of age and suffering for years with Rheumatic Fever, now Rheumatoid Arthritis. My parents have let no stone go unturned. Now we seem to have reached a standstill and don’t know where to turn. After reading THERE IS A RIVER such hopes arise within me that you may help, and I know you will if you take my case.

“I was also recommended by my physician, Dr. Milan Kuna of 608 Fifth Ave., N.Y.”

B2. 11/10/43 “Now my legs begin to ache, making it difficult to walk. Please help me soon, won’t you?”

B3. 11/15/43 “Mr. [3460]…wrote you he would like to switch his reading appointment for mine, since he is in the army and can’t tell you where he will be. I hope sincerely this will be, as I am in dire need of help.”

B4. 11/29/43 Miss [3444] submitted questions: “Is there any special diet I should have? Are there any restricted activities? If treatments are followed carefully is it indicated how long it will be before results will appear? Has it been wise to discontinue taking medicine?”
