This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 3rd day of May, 1944, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [5051], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by two friends, Mr. [1467] and Mr. […].

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis and Jeanette Fitch, Stenos. Mr. [5051]”s cousin.]

Time of Reading 10:45 to 11:05 A. M. Eastern War Time. …, Va.

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, [5051].

3. As we find there are rather serious disturbances with this body. There is so little resistance upon which to build. It is the lack of the assimilations necessary for vital energies to aid the body in overcoming the subjugation of all the nerve forces of the body.

4. There are disturbances having to do with the circulation between the liver and the kidneys. These are the sources of the conditions. The complications arising from the operative measures and the effects of the anaesthesia upon the nervous system have been and are the greater distresses to the body in the present.

5. We find the lack of ability for the proper activities of liver, gall duct, pancreas and the spleen - because of the engorgement there. This is the greater disorder in the body. If there are not measures taken to correct the disturbance in spleen as related to shock from operative measures, we find that recuperation or normalcy will not be possible in this particular period of sojourn.

6. Then, as we find, these we would do:

7. In the diet there should be only predigested foods or those easily assimilated by the body.

8. Give the body pure beef juice as medicine. Give one teaspoonful every eight hours, but let this be sipped - it is not to be gulped. This should be allowed to work with the flow of the saliva, as well as with the conditions in upper portion of stomach, and through the esophagus and the duodenum. Hold it in the mouth, you see, a sip at a time, and allow it to be assimilated by the body before it is swallowed.

9. Not that these are the only foods to be taken, but these should be stressed in the diet. Give the body all characters of foods that it will take, but especially the strength-building foods easily assimilated; for unless there is strength given, and unless there is a change between - or in the activities between the spleen, the liver and kidneys, this can’t remain the same.

10. Each day use KalDak as a malted milk. Dissolve a level teaspoonful in a little hot water and then fill the tumbler or glass with whole milk. Let this be taken during the day.

11. Do begin with the relaxing treatments osteopathically, stimulating the emptying of the gall duct - not attempting to empty, but stimulating the emptying of the gall duct, the pancreas and the spleen to work with the assimilating system.

12. Do add the X-Ray treatments for the liver, the kidneys and the disturbance in the bladder and the prostate areas. These, then, would be given over the area of the kidneys from the back one time, and the next time over the liver and gall duct area. These we would give about once or twice a week.

13. For these treatments we would use Ober.

14. These, as we find, offer the greater help for this body.

15. Do these.

16. Ready for questions.

17. (Q) Should I keep going to same doctors? (A) If you want to die!

18. (Q) How long before improvements could be seen, if I do as you say? (A) We should begin to see improvements by the second or third treatment, if there is response to be had for this body.

19. (Q) Is the condition cancerous? (A) Not necessarily cancerous.

Do the things indicated, if we would bring even the possibilities of recuperation.

20. We are through with this reading.
