Re: the story, the link, the tincture, oh my!
So many questions, so little time to post the answers while the internet connection seems content to continually slow and bog down ;(
I'm posting these in the order in which I was able to search the CZ archives and find them in anything approaching a timely and expeditious manner (.... the bogged down internet thinng, again ;(:
The tincture:
Here is just one thread wherein it is discussed a general tincture making procedure, with a KICK IT UP A NOTCH tip. This can be used for making herb tinctures in general. I've now used it twice to make Cayenne tincture.

Some video evidence of the before and after tincture:
Enough on the tincture for now.
The story:
Once a child was shot in the abdomen; a bullet hit the spine, ricocheted, and made a second wound leaving the body. One of Dr. Christopher's herbal students, living next door, heard the shot and raced over, as she knew that the parents were not home and that the children, ages eight and four, would not be shooting guns. There was the eight-year-old gushing blood out both sides. She ran to the cabinet and mixed a tablespoonful of cayenne in a glass of water; she poured it down the boy and immediately called the ambulance, which was eighteen miles away. The emergency room attendant said that the boy would probably bleed to death, being that the distance was so great. The ambulance arrived and rushed the child (who had been playing “Cops and Robbers” with his fathers pistol, which he had found Under the pillow of the bed, to the Primary Children's Hospital eighteen miles away. When he arrived, he was the center of attraction, not because his ease was so dangerous, but because he was chatting a mile a minute - and there was not bleeding. The bleeding had stopped by the time they arrived at the hospital. The chief doctor said to the parents, “I have seen many accident victims in my life, but this is the first time in such an emergency operation that I have opened an abdomen to find no blood, except for a small amount that was there before the bleeding stopped so quickly. This has saved your boy's life.”

To wrap up all this, there is even some Christopher-related mystery to be found for eyes that see :)
