Time of Reading 11:00 to 11:10 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Conn. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, taking the conditions of this body, [664] as we have here, as a pattern or example, much might be pointed out as to how the environs of a place, house, room or surroundings are changed or produced by the dwelling there of an individual that radiates even distressed conditions from itself.

2. In this body we find there are disturbing conditions. These have in the main been correct in the prognosis and diagnosis. We do not find, unless there are material changes, the body lasting physically as long as has been set; for as those changes come about from the adjusting of the system, as it were, in the menopause, and with the dilation that has been the physical effect produced by applications for the body in preventative measures in some instances - in the hope for assistance in creating a different condition in the impulses of the imaginative or sympathetic system to increase the desires in directions, the conditions have been so dilated between the lungs, the heart and the liver that these are gradually weakening.

3. And only no excitement, out of doors, plenty of oxygen in every way and manner, with that which would lessen rather than dilate the pulmonary activity of the heart forces, may keep the body in this experience or existence.

4. Rather should the mental body keep a balance.

5. Ready for questions.

6. (Q) How long will she survive under the present regime of living and treatment? (A) That depends, as we have indicated. From the present, less than thirty months.

7. (Q) What material changes would aid, as referred to? (A) The Animated Ash with the reverse coil of the diathermy for the body. This won’t be used.

8. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 9/20/34 Dr. [657]‘s letter: “The reading regarding my wife was received this a.m. It conforms with the prognosis made by several other sources. Thank you for your service, for so small a fee. I am, of course, very curious to know what applications the body of the reading refers to that has produced the physical effect of dilation. She has tried so many things. But this [reading to answer this question] will probably have to be deferred until another time…” [He requested subsequent readings for himself.]

“The diagnosis in her case is myocarditis (of middle age) with sclerosis of the coronary arteries. She has the accompanying high blood pressure, and indigestion, etc. She has been given a prognosis of from one to three years from the present time to live, the more definite time depending on the rest she receives, etc… She would not change her present routine, even if she were strongly advised to, so strong is her faith in her special doctor (not myself).”
