This article on historic treatment of newborn jaundice in Asia may be the
connection to why a boy who lived across the street was given some sort of
tea by the nuns who were nurses at the German hospital where he was born.
Due to fail to thrive, he was then transferred to a US military hospital
because the dad was in the Army. The mom told me about it 25 years ago and
it was inconceivable to me at the time. The boy had various developmental
problems in his 25 years of life that I always wondered about and that
helped sever that marriage after three children. An a'ha moment. Jaundice!
