But if she'd broken her bones before, it would have been NOTICED. You don't break a bone without noticing unless you're numb.

That's true .. good point

Plus there would be medical records

I think that you are forgetting that her 'event' was in 1990, and the bone scan wasn't taken until 1991. Any fractures likely occured during those months in care, being moved around for vatious bodily functions, etc.

Many elderly people, with no bone problem from bulimia, experience bone fractures while in nursing homes (my Mother being one, BTW).
