Time of Reading 11:20 to 11:25 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, 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.

3. Now as we find, there continues to be those disturbances through the digestive areas and the stomach proper, as we have indicated.

4. While the lower wall, and those areas about the lower portion especially show a great deal of thickening and a great deal of inflammation, we find that if the applications of the low electrical forces will be made, for dissipation of the conditions, as combined with the sedative that may make for the quieting of the body, these offer the better applications for the conditions which we find exist.

5. We would do that as indicated.

6. Ready for questions.

7. (Q) Her attending physician diagnoses the condition as a large cancer in her abdomen in an advanced stage, for which nothing can be done. Is this correct? (A) As we find, rather as has been indicated; and if there will be the use of those things as given, these offer the better aid and help.

8. (Q) Is there any malignant condition at all? (A) Rather as we have indicated, that this may BECOME malignant, - or that the mental attitudes and those depreciations of the activities of those influences indicated may bring destructive influences, or the production of that which might produce peritoneum disturbance.

Do as we have indicated if we would have the better forces.

9. (Q) Is there any chance for her living a longer period than two to three months? (A) It may not be a day, it may not be a week! This depends, to be sure, upon the resistances that may be indicated. If there are the abilities or the desires for attending to things that would have to do with the dissipation of the physical forces, it had better be attended to!

10. (Q) What should be done for the dry mouth that interferes with her talking? (A) As we find, a little elm water; a little elm bark dissolved in water and the mouth rinsed with same will make for an improvement in this condition.

11. (Q) Should the Alcaroid be continued? (A) As has been indicated.

12. We are through with this Reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 4/18/39 Mr. [261]‘s letter: “I have just returned from a trip to … and have seen my aunt, Miss [975], I found that she had failed a good deal since I saw her three weeks ago and the doctor thinks it is a question of only a few days before she will pass on. I found him not sympathetic to the battery treatment suggested so have been unable to try it. While it might have afforded some temporary relief, I don’t believe that it would have affected the final result since the ailment is so far advanced. The rdg. itself would not seem to offer very much hope.

“Incidentally I did use the elm bark dissolved in water and that seemed to help the dryness in my aunt’s mouth to a considerable extent, so that some good was accomplished at any rate.

“With kindest regards to you all.”

R2. GD’s note: Mr. [261] told us later that his aunt died a few months later.
