    Yeah, I am also morbidly curious.

    Best case scenario you are right, and she is a well meaning moron who doesn’t understand what a fecal transplant actually is. Or maybe found some bad info on the internet about how to “help” her kid.

    Worst case, is she was trying to murder her child.

    I suppose there is also a Munchausen’s by proxy angle as well. Wants to keep the kid sick to keep getting sympathy.
