[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.]

Rockland State Time of Reading Hospital, Bldg. 10:45 to 11:00 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. 57, Ward 98, Orangeburg, N.Y.

1. GC: 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:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here. Very serious, very sad conditions exist here.

3. As we find, much that was intimated in the beginnings with this body, when we first had same here, has come about; partially by neglect, partially by the lack of the applications consistently of those influences which were indicated would be the correct as well as curative forces for the body.

4. In the present, we find there is the indication of the breaking down of the impulses through the nerve force itself; thus producing a deteriorating force in nerve tissue, thus softening the impress of the influences of locomotion as for activity of mental forces - through the coordinating centers of body as well as the sensory system.

5. These as we find may YET be aided, IF there would be a CONSISTENT and persistent application of influences which would turn the activity of that assimilated through the channels of the glandular forces as relate to nerve building.

6. Thus the impulses would be stimulated for improvement of the white and gray matter, as it were, in the nerve and brain centers, or circulation, to replenish rather than allowing to become in such a nature that the coordination between cerebro-spinal and sympathetic becomes either blocked entirely or becomes atrophied in portions and thus a softening which would become the LACK of ability to produce coordination through the system.

7. These, as has first been indicated, arise from conditions of an infectious genital organ nature; gonorrheal in its nature. This was first indicated in the form or matter as produced in the arthritic reaction, as well as in the early stages - as viewed from here - when there were sores, as well as the infectious forces through the system.

8. In the present, we find there may be much more accomplished if there will be used the nature of sedative that does not break down the coordination of sympathetic and cerebrospinal impulses, rather than the use of hypnotics that DO break down the coordination.

9. Also we would use the low electrical vibratory forces that are very low in their impulse but high in their vibratory forces, - as through the Wet Cell Appliance carrying to the body the effect of Gold - as was first indicated. The Gold Solution used in the Appliance would be in the proportions of two grains Chloride of Gold to each ounce of Distilled Water; and there should be used four and a half to five ounces of the Solution in each charge of the Appliance - that would be renewed every fifteen days.

10. The attachments to the body would be made each day, for twenty to thirty minutes, as follows: The small copper plate would be attached to the 9th dorsal center, while the larger nickel plate - through which the Gold Solution passes - would be attached to the umbilicus and lacteal duct center.

11. Also each evening, when the body is prepared for rest, there would be a massage with an equal combination of Olive Oil and Tincture of Myrrh - from the base of the brain to the end of the spine, ALONG the spinal system.

12. With these, we may find there may be gradually left off the sedatives, - and this we would do as fast as is practical; but using, as indicated, the bromide or of such nature rather than the hypnotic will be the more beneficial.

13. We should see results very soon, or within three to four weeks, if these are applied. Without these, we will find periods of lack of coordination, melancholia, the gradual breaking up of the better coordination, and eventually not only muscular but nerve atrophy - in its coordination between the impulses and the brain or cord itself.

14. Ready for questions.

15. (Q) Is the present mental condition of the body related directly or indirectly to the original condition of the body as described in past Readings? (A) Related indirectly to the first condition. The condition existing, you see, was from infectious forces; affecting the very nature of creative energies or forces of the body - which in its inception IS the activity of gonorrheal conditions, see? Then it affected the blood supply in such a manner that many of the glandular forces of the body became DIRECTLY disturbed through same.

This breaking then the coordination between impulse of the mental forces, or brain center itself, and the sympathetic or the sensory forces, brought about the nerve collapse in RESPONSE of one impulse to another.

16. (Q) Under the present condition of the body in the Rockland State Hospital, what can be done to improve her condition in order to obtain release to follow other treatments? (A) This will have to be cared for either through that of research in such directions, or the obtaining of a release through the use of same as a research case.

17. (Q) Where should subsequent treatments be administered? (A) Under the direction of one wherever the place may be chosen, that would be in sympathy with not only the physical and mental condition but with the general research that may be found in such conditions.

18. (Q) What are the possibilities for recovery for this body, and what will be the time required if treatments are followed? (A) It would require from nine months to a year for such improvements to be made that the GROWTH through assimilation and nerve and body-building would have sufficient opportunity for the cycle of its change in the body itself.

19. (Q) Would it be wise to visit the patient frequently? (A) That is dependent upon the MANNER and in which way the applications are made. If they are from the purely mechanical sense of direction, not very well to visit. If they are from a constructive angle and for a spiritual concept of the body as related to the UNIVERSAL forces, it would be very well.

20. (Q) Are there any suggestions for improving, clothes, diet or treatment by attendants? (A) Necessarily these will necessitate changes, - or then the regular routine in the present environs.

21. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 12/20/38 Letter from Mr. [1793] to EC: “I thank you for the rdg. and enclose cheque $10.

“I am sorry to say that while [631] is where she is the rdg. can be of no avail. You probably know the old story of the orthodox medical profession. Orthodoxy must be observed if all the patients die - orthodoxy being an end in itself. Well that is that. For myself I am practically bereft of hope that there can be any recovery under present conditions and treatment. It then resolves itself down entirely to a question of money.

“I spent nearly 3 hrs. with Dr. Blaisdell last Sunday at Rockland. On that one thing he was adamant on all others extremely cordial and helpful. He told me that if I desired and could make the arrangements he would put through the necessary papers etc. and hand Mrs. [631] over to me or to her sisters ‘within twenty four hrs’. This is fair enough if a suitable place could be found that would follow your diagnosis and could be afforded. But that, at the present time, seems altogether out of the question and so, for the time being the matter must rest that way. I thought you would be interested in knowing this…”

“P.S. Your son’s program [WOR - ‘Mysteries of the Mind’] is extremely interesting and entertaining. I think it has unusual possibilities and believe it will be successful.”

R2. 12/20/38 He requested rdg. for himself to see if he could obtain funds in order to help Mrs. [631]. See 1793-1 on 1/16/39.

R3. 5/24/39 He obtained his Life rdg. 1793-2.

R4. 5/4/39 “The last time I heard from Mrs. [631]‘s sister she had had two metrozol treatments. There has been a change for the better during her sane (?) intervals but no improvement between times. I do not know how many shocks are to be given. I understand the tr. is very severe and throws the patient into convulsions.”

R5. 5/22/39 “Mrs. [631] has had 8 or 9 metrozol treatments of a series of 18. Her recovery is amazing. I wrote to her sister that if she continues at the same rate she will be sure that [815] and I are a bunch of nuts. Metrozol is recent. There is no way of telling how permanent it may be. Had I the say I would have her take the tr. prescribed by your rdg. after she finishes with the metrozol. If and when I can afford it I’ll have it done anyway - irrespective of what her sisters may say or think. But now they pay and call the tune.”

R6. 5/29/39 Mr. [1793]‘s letter: “The latest reports are to the effect that the METROZOL treatment has been a notable success. [815] read me a letter he received from her last week and it sounded as sane as anything could be. She said she was leaving the Sanatorium in a few days. Also that she was coming on to see the Fair with her sisters. I shall have to get this confirmed through the sisters but it sounds pretty nearly perfect. The problem that remains in her case is how permanent are such cures. The medicament is so recent that I understand it is not yet known if it is or is not permanent.”

R7. 12/20/39 Mr. [1793]‘s letter: “First I wish to thank you for your Christmas remembrance, which I greatly appreciate.

“I hope things are going well with you. They are not so good up this way but I am told by those who think they know the ways of the stars that my fortunes are on the eve of improvement.

“You will want to hear, I think, about Mrs. [631]. I have not seen her since she went to Cleveland, which was prior to her return to sanity. I hear from her and she appears to be again entirely normal. It is unfortunate however that her family’s fortunes are in a very bad way. They must give up their home to a bank and are going to Texas to live. This means they have practically nothing left. I received a very depressing letter from […] this morning saying she was penniless and had nowhere to go. I happen to be very close to that sort of thing myself. So I can see nothing to do but take her in and trust to Providence to carry us through in one way or another. I telegraphed to her to come on and stop with me. After all, why not. I took in a stray kitten not long ago because it too had nowhere to go and was half starved, so why not a human being I should like to know.

“It is most interesting to me that after telling my friends that they were somewhat unduely disturbed about what is going on in the world, I should so soon find my judgment vindicated. There is nothing truer than that evil carries the seed of its own destruction within it. It begins now to seem quite obvious that Hitler is destroying himself and so too is Stalin. This, I believe, will go a long way toward clearing up the evil that has been running wild in this country for the past seven years. The mills of God grind slowly but they grind exceedingly fine.

“May you have happiness for Christmas and the New Year.”

R8. 12/21/40 Mr. [1793]‘s ltr. under 1793-2 Reports: “Mrs. [631] has been with me since last Jan. She is entirely normal and has been but finds it difficult to forget her experience. Her doctor thought it especially important for her to gain weight and she certainly has done so. I have done what I could for her which has been very little.”

R9. 1/3/41 See 1793-3, Par. 15-A in re “the [631] situation.”

B2. 11/29/38 Her broker, guardian, Mr. [1793], phoned requesting copy of most thorough previous rdgs., so they could make out questions, since Mrs. [631] is in mental institution, having gone all to pieces.

B3. 12/13/38 He submitted questions (edited by HLC then in N.Y.), including: “Does this body have at present a condition of gonorrhea or syphilis or the effects of either of these, and if so which. If either, of how long standing?” [GD’s note: See 631-1, Par. 6.]
