There needs be only the care and attention given to self, that the full development and conditions of body may be completed with same, see? for these conditions, as we find, will terminate in the last weeks of November or first of December [Baby son was born 12/4/25], and the will’s forces of each may yet, as conditions exist, bring to the sex that of either, see? The conditions are all normal at the present time, see?

Homesexual tendencies were evident in early manhood. See [318] series.]

  5. (Q) How may the body exercise the will to that effect? (A) Keeping in mind, intent and purpose, that for which this builds, see? Just as we see, all in the keeping then of the condition to be brought about, see?

  6. (Q) Should the body continue with the medicine it has been taking? (A) These, as we see, were for conditions to prevent the nausea in the system, when these conditions were being brought about, see? This needs only be kept occasionally for the body, see? and the general exercises as is necessary for the body to function the normal throughout.

The diet should be watched, see? keeping those of the light meats, of the much vegetable and much fruit, see? No stimulating forces, save as may be in that necessary for digestion, see? That is, of alcoholic forces, or of the forces that carry the narcotic developments in system; that is, of coffee or tea. These are heavy, see? and in very small quantities may be taken.
