HLC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions which have been submitted, as I ask them:
-
EC: Yes.
-
Conditions here as we find are not so good. Again we find there is an inclination, from those disturbances in the liver and gall duct area, to form a combination of toxic and malarial reactions; or forming a slow temperature that is sapping the vitality of the blood stream by the impure activity through the areas in the excretory functioning of the liver, and the poor eliminations through the alimentary canal.
-
These need precautions, as well as consistency in eliminating the disturbances from the system.
-
As we find, first we would have about two days of using the hot Castor Oil Packs over the liver and gall duct area; using for about two hours each day.
-
Throughout this first series we would live practically upon a liquid and semi-liquid diet, but include cooked steel cut oats in the diet, for the effective activity of the strengthening forces to that so lacking in the blood supply.
-
After the two days, have a thorough hydrotherapy cleaning. This would mean first a vapor or semi-vapor bath; preferably with a combination of Wintergreen and Atomidine - about three drops of each in half a pint of water as the fume bath with dry heat; then the thorough rubdown.
-
This would be followed by a high enema or colonic; then another thorough rubdown with oils - Pine Oil, preferably.
-
Then take following any meal taken (this, of course, not until after this first series) a quarter teaspoonful of Alcaroid; first dissolved in a little water and then nearly a whole glass or more taken with same. This would be taken for about two to three days.
-
Then take the Caroid and Bile Salts Tablets; one of morning, one at the noon meal, and two in the evening - just after the meal.
-
These then may necessitate the second series, or second of the hydrotherapy treatments to stimulate the superficial circulation; THIS time the massage being principally with the Olive Oil and NOT the fume bath - though the dry heat should be a part of the treatment.
-
In the diets, keep to those that are full strengthening; as cracked wheat well cooked, - this is well for the body, and the steel cut oats cooked a long time are well for the body; also vegetable soups, with not too much meat, but a good beef stock with same.
-
And take Codiron, - one tablet at each meal. This would be after the second series of the hydrotherapy treatments, however.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) What can be done to further overcome the bile condition? (A) This is what we have given!
-
(Q) In just what way are the conditions physically and activities mentally working against a proper balance in this body at this time? (A) As indicated, through the toxic forces created in the system.
-
(Q) Is there trouble with the heart? (A) Only as a sympathetic condition from those toxic forces in the liver area.
-
(Q) Any trouble with the kidneys? (A) Sympathetically, and the use of those properties as indicated as a part of the fume baths should aid materially in this direction.
-
(Q) Any trouble with the bladder? (A) Only sympathetically.
-
(Q) Will the applications just suggested correct the swelling of the feet, ankles and legs and apparent fluid condition? (A) They should, provided these are carried out in the manner indicated.
Do that.
-
(Q) Is the condition of the eyes leading to any serious trouble? (A) The general conditions for the system as indicated, with especially the diet adhered to, and the general physical conditions improved, the eyes should improve.

We are through with this Reading.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 9/29/39 Mrs. [602]‘s letter: “The treatment suggested in the ck. rdg. has helped me so much. Very much to my surprise the swelling left my ankles after the first application of castor oil packs and was completely gone after second application the second day. It returned to some extent before second series, but for the past week or more I haven’t had any return of swelling or apparent fluid condition - that is, upon pressure with thumb at the ankle the indentation would remain quite a while. This has been corrected. I have been sick vomiting, etc., one day only since starting treatment. The diet suggested has been so ample I seldom desire more food. Strange thing, I have never been able to eat oatmeal in my life but like it now… I haven’t taken enough Adiron to notice results, as I was hesitant about taking them while taking Caroid tablets. Adiron was formerly called ‘Codiron’ as suggested in the rdg. I thought after a month or so we would check again… [670] (son) has certainly come to rely on the readings… Thank you so much again for the help you have so willingly given.”
R2. 11/25/39 Son [670]: “She is still troubled with occasional sick spells.”
R3. 2/13/40 Husband [333]‘s ltr.: “Mrs. [602] is feeling better physically than she is in a long time, thanks to you, and to the readings, and she is still keeping up with the medicine recommended in the last rdg.”
R4. 1/4/42 Husband [333]‘s letter: “Mrs. [602] has decided to have a Mental and Spiritual reading if you would be so kind as to help again at this time.” [Mrs. [602] was concerned over the welfare and safety of her son, Pvt. [670], since war had been declared, fearing that he would have to actually get into battle and perhaps be injured or killed.]
R5. See 602-7 on 1/8/42.

B2. 8/6/39 Husband [333]‘s ltr.: “The [1268]‘s, in whose home we have a part and who have been so good to us in many ways…they consult Mrs. [602] about everything, seeming to have a high regard for her in every way, but it takes much out of Mrs. [602] in the giving of self to them. In fact it along with all her other trials has brought her to a state where it is an effort to carry on from day to day. I have been urging her to ck. up and find out what to do for if she has to give up under our present circumstances we might as well fold up. No one can ever realize what the years from 1931 to the present [financial worries?] have taken out of both of us.”
