You are a very good non-fiction story teller hands down you are very very good. What happened to your son is an example of how ignorant people are nowadays. The so called experts could not do anything but a very careful search yielded a life saving solution. The search engine we have nowadays is practically useless unless you really know what you are doing. Good for you. You figured it out yourself.
Thank you for the kind words.
I strongly agree that search engines nowadays in many situations are almost useless. I did a quick search the same way I would have done had I been faced with this situation nowadays, and the results were crap, and did NOT offer the solution I came up with many years ago.
I'm planning on another article on this. Really, searching nowadays can be abysmal.

Maybe a good measure would be to document organic medical solutions. As in Occam's razor :
In philosophy, Occam's razor (also spelled Ockham's razor or Ocham's razor; Latin: novacula Occami) is the problem-solving principle that recommends searching for explanations constructed with the smallest possible set of elements. It is also known as the principle of parsimony or the law of parsimony (Latin: lex parsimoniae). Attributed to William of Ockham, a 14th-century English philosopher and theologian, it is frequently cited as Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem, which translates as "Entities must not be multiplied beyond necessity", although Occam never used these exact words. Popularly, the principle is sometimes paraphrased as "The simplest explanation is usually the best one."
Maybe it's not common sense but upon understanding what exactly is involved, maybe it is better common sense.
