This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 14th day of January, 1944, in accordance with request made by the mother - Mrs. […], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research and Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by the article in Coronet.

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

At the home of her Time of Reading parents … South, 3:40 to 3:50 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, Minnesota.

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.

3. As we find, little may be experienced for the entity. There may be a prolonging and eventually such conditions as to hold the entity as a physical body in this present sojourn, yet this would not appear to be in keeping with the best for the soul-entity.

4. For here we have one of those experiences of karmic forces for all concerned - this body, those responsible for same. An understanding of this should come, then, as the knowledge of powers that be and that are within.

5. True, the water may be stopped from gathering about the brain, but unless there were some very unusual measures taken, there would form lesions, or there would be apt to form lesions unless certain drainages were set up.

6. But the injection of a sixtieth of a grain of atropine at the base of the spine, or the last lumbar, will cause the drying of the conditions causing the lymph to gather and flow about the brain in the present, that keeps the equilibrium from being established in the body.

7. But study rather to show self approved, knowing that physically ye are contributing to the physical well-being, and to the mental and spiritual self, if there are those influences to keep a balance in the activities to the body.

8. Ready for questions.

9. (Q) What was the cause of her condition? (A) Read just what has been indicated.

10. (Q) Should we take her to any specific place or doctor for treatment? (A) As to whether ye will be able to get this done as we have indicated here will be a question, but it would be found to be helpful. But if they will be able to keep lesions from forming, as the atropine dries tissue, only by very careful manipulation and the supplying of nerves and blood supply to all the cranial nerves may there be any hope for not leaving the body maimed in activity.

11. We are through with this reading.

Background

Background

B1. 10/27/43 Mother’s ltr.: “She has been sick almost since birth but I have never given up hope for her. Medical science has never found the cause of her condition, or others like it, altho in Christian Science, which we have been studying, there is really only one cause and that is good…”

B2. 12/9/43 “Her case is water on the brain and every day counts, while we wait, more than we can possibly realize… The Mayo Clinic told us she wouldn’t live to be very old, for her case seemed to have progressed so fast from the beginning… I can’t say [3555] does as many things as a 6 mo. old child, as she does not sit up and can amuse herself very little. She is intelligent but does not talk except baby talk.”
