In school he was a poor student, until one evening, after wrestling with a spelling lesson and receiving many rebuffs from his father for stupidity, he got the idea that a short sleep would be helpful. To describe these elves of the trees, the fairies of the woods, or - to me - the angels or hosts, with all their beautiful and glorious surroundings would be almost a sacrilege.” It was also there in the woods that he visioned an angelic lady, who asked him what he would like most of all, and his reply was, “To be helpful to others, and especially to children when they are sick.” Using an unusual gift that he was soon to discover, Edgar Cayce devoted most of his life to the fulfillment of this childhood desire.

He often reported seeing and conversing with his deceased grandfather and invisible playmates. Signs of his psychic sensitivities were evident as a child.
