The mental attitude, the deep and true mental attitude, of everyone involved, should be altered if possible to one that is more hopeful. The woman is picking up and reacting to the negative thoughts of those who believe recovery is impossible.

There seems to be a male relative, I believe twice removed, perhaps an uncle, though I am not certain—a visit from him would be beneficial. (Long pause.) As an immediate step all effort should be made to remove negative suggestions, as these are building up about her. She has felt psychologically trapped for some time, this bringing about the physical trap into which she has fallen.

She should be assured that she is loved, but basically free. She should be assured then that love is not a bond, to hold her down. She does not feel free to be the person she knows herself to be. She does not trust her ability to stand up and face the world.

A man like Le Cron (author of Self-Hypnotism: The Technique and Its Use in Daily Living, copyright 1964, published by Prentice-Hall, Inc., Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey) will recommend a reliable hypnotist. The other suggestions I have made, the addition of iron and the use of peanut oil, should be begun at once. The bed facing the south. A change in the husband’s attitude will affect the attitude of the ill woman.

The husband, now, should follow this exercise three times dail: He should imagine the energy and vitality of the universe filling his wife’s form with vitality and health. Not a wishful thinking sort of thing, but a definite effort to understand that her form is indeed composed of this energy, and in this way he can help her use it to her advantage.

If possible he should touch her during this exercise, and it should be done morning, noon and evening. One of the shocks mentioned had to do with a death; one with an incident shortly before her marriage; marriage itself was a shock, and the third one.

If possible she should be taken out into the sun, and the peanut oil will be even more beneficial if it is used then. Look for subtle signs of improvement rather than further signs of deterioration.

You can help make up for this by your own attitude, and the instructions I have given you. This will give her some breathing spell, when the disease will cease its progression. If these instructions are followed completely, then some (underlined) improvement should take place very shortly.

Parsnips should be added to the diet.

The situation is indeed drastic. (Pause.) Her desire to live must be wooed. Any small pleasures that she has should be used in an effort to involve her with pleasure. As much pleasure as possible must be given her to counteract the concentration upon hopelessness and disaster. I cannot stress any of these points too strongly.
