My 80 year old cousin was in Fernald as a child, and He was experimented on by Quaker oats and MIT... It was not Breakfast. they fed him... Look it up...Lynn do you have family or personal experience with he tub? Let me say this, That tub was built for treatment perhaps that is true, but more than often it was used for punishment and experiments... I have read his file/charts it was no bubble bath Lynn.... Lot of facts have been covered up just like the Salem witch trails we "Americans" are ashamed and hide the horrors we have done as much as possible. So we can " appear humane" When you have unpleasent opportunity to read the sad history of a relative who was in a few Asylums ( wrongfully diagnossed) you read more than you want to know... Furthermore Lack of funds is no excuse to torture the ill or let me use the correct terminology of that day lunatics morons, insane or imbeciles, today that would translate the Depressed, post partum women, dyslexic kids, learning disabled , senial elders or epileptics, but for historical argument sake lets just call them all feeble minded since that's ok to right? NOT!!!!
know your history I'm sure the syringes megale used were not created for injecting toxic chemicals into the eyes of twins .... but that is what he did with them. My point is not all that is created for good will be used that way.... History speaks for itself and I agree with the post above " a picture is worth a thousand words" There is nothing theraputic looking about this tub against a wall....
