[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Jeanette Fitch, Stenos.]

Time of Reading Set bet. 10:30 to 11:30 A. M. Eastern War Time. …, Ky.

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, [5375].

3. As we find, there are disturbances which might easily become very serious and yet with the proper care and precautions; and the application of the bettered conditions for the body, we should have great improvements gradually builded for this body.

4. There has been a real strain in the nerves and muscular forces of the body across the brachial center; that is, all of those segments, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th segments, were put in a stress and there are lesions formed there. This has been some time back. It has caused, by the deflection of the nerve flow, a condition with the heart’s activity which has caused a great deal of anxiety at times with this stress and pressure, and also it has slowed the activity of the liver and its relationship to the kidneys.

5. Thus we have at times considerable uric acid in the circulation. This has gradually tended to leave pressures throughout the nerve system as to cause rheumatic reactions when cold is contracted or when there are sudden drafts or overexercise or poor digestion. For we have a tendency for slow eliminations also.

6. We would find that first a change of climate, such as to Lakeland, Florida would be well for the body and being under such direction there as of the neuropath, Dr. Snyder [E. L. Kinsinger?], would be well for this body.

7. These treatments should include, then, first a little series of two, three or four of colonic irrigations to purify the whole of the alimentary canal. We would have the neuropathic treatments especially following the nerves and making some adjustments in the areas of the brachial center and the 3rd cervical and the 3rd, 4th and 5th cervical. All of these need some pressure removed.

8. Then have gentle outdoor exercise - riding, walking, not too much, but all of these will gradually bring help and in eighteen months we should be relieved of these disturbances.

9. Ready for questions.

10. (Q) How long has this condition persisted? (A) Since the disturbances as have been indicated.

11. (Q) Should I exercise as much as possible without straining? (A) Just read what has been indicated, not a great deal, but riding and walking, but keep in the open, not when it causes strain. Do the correcting first and then let the exercises gradually be builded, see?

12. (Q) Are the electric treatments beneficial? (A) The electric treatments are very good and yet are rather dangerous with the pressure upon the thrombose, but if there will be the corrections, see, then the electrical treatments given a little bit later; that is, say in January, we should find them most beneficial.

13. (Q) Is there any danger of sudden death from this ailment? (A) Is there any danger of anything? To be sure there is danger. But precautions should be taken, for if the body should become overexcited or strained, it would almost cause a permanent injury. But do as has been indicated.

14. We are through with this reading.

Two copies to Self (one for the neuropath who is to carry out these directions - Please let us have the name and address of the one you choose.) Copy to Ass’n file ” for indexing

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 7/24/44 GD’s letter to [5375]: If you do not know of a Dr. Snyder in Lakeland, Fla., we’d suggest that you send a copy of your reading to Mr. Thomas Sugrue, 11 Glendale St., Clearwater Beach, Fla., asking that he give you detailed information regarding the type of treatment recommended. Mr. Sugrue has been living near Lakeland for some time and is familiar with the various manners of treatment available in the section.

R2. 9/13/44 [5375]‘s letter: “I find that it is impossible for me to go to Florida at present, as the reading advised, as much as I would like to. But I am going to a Naprapath for treatments, next week, as reading advised. I have been taking treatments similar to those advised. But I am changing to the Naprapath next week. Will send you his name and results of treatments; that is, taking it for granted that he will give me treatments as reading specified. I have hopes for much improvement. I might add frankly that I was just a little disappointed in two things, but not exceedingly so. The fact that the reading did not advocate any spiritual help (but of course I know this is between God and I). Also the reading did not seem to touch on point where physical weakness is centered upon (No offence meant). Of course I realize all is not known to me, and there is strong indication of injured nervous system - as reading advised. (I am very interested in this work.)”

R3. 4/26/45 [5375]‘s letter: “Since the very unfortunate passing of Mr. Cayce, I have lost contact with the Ass’n. I had one reading from Mr. Cayce. I would like to know if this work is being carried on as usual, as I am still very interested.”

R4. 10/16/47 Report requested by GD.

B1. 12/2/43 Letter: “I have had for the last 18 mos. what the doctors have diagnosed as rheumatic heart disease - they have been unable to help me, except one who gave me some help with electric treatments. My trouble is mostly in my heart. I pain constantly, also suffer from pains in the legs. I have so much nervous tension, my food will hardly digest. I have some sort of attacks. Have not been able to work for almost 2 years.” 1. What was the cause of this condition and how long has it persisted? 2. Should I exercise as much as possible without straining? 3.

Are electric treatments beneficial? 8. What is diagnosis of condition? 9. Is the ill health I have been experiencing the result of wrongful living? 10. What treatments are suggested? 11.
