The case of [3286], in which I was only slightly involved, is a dramatic example of the importance of patience and persistence in achieving one of Cayce’s miracles. It took twelve years to come about. This is the story:

The young woman, severely handicapped by poliomyelitis since infancy, was twenty-five when she received her first Cayce reading (October 11, 1943). He prescribed the daily use of the wet-cell appliance carrying gold, silver, and iodine alternately. This was to be followed by massage with a combination of these oils: Russian white oil, oil of pine needles, olive oil, peanut oil, and sassafras oil. “Be persistent, be consistent, be instant [insistent] in prayer,” he told her

Cayce sent her to me for instruction in the use of the appliance and massage. I saw her twice.

In November 1955, Cayce’s devoted secretary, Gladys Davis Turner, was making a survey of cases. She wrote Miss [3286] asking for a report on her experience with the wet-cell appliance.

The reply came back: the wet-cell appliance and massage had been used faithfully for over a year, but “as to the overall results of the reading . . . I have absolutely nothing to say one way or the other. If you have information on others who were helped from the results of polio, I would be most happy to know about it.”

Gladys wrote back relating the story on file of a thirty-year-old woman [2778] whose legs had been paralyzed by polio when she was a year old. She used huge, clumsy braces and crutches in order to walk. Her reading from Mr. Cayce prescribed the use of the wet-cell appliance, massage, and heat cabinet. In three months’ time she could stand alone and in two years’ time she was using braces from the knees down and a cane to help her keep her balance. “On the basis of her progress alone I would certainly encourage you to take out your readings again and follow the treatments,” Gladys wrote Miss [3286].

In time, [3286] replied that as a result of Gladys’s letter she had bought an appliance and supplies and started in again, this time with her mother and sister giving the massage. “I’m getting straighter, I’m told. My spine seems to be straightening out . . . I believe I can raise my left arm higher than I did . . . I have gotten up out of the wheelchair . . . from a slightly lower height than usual.”
