"I doubt the broken bones. Particularly at that age."

Her radiologist didn't. Nor do I. It makes complete sense, especially for bulimics, who as I said, typically suffer from brittle bones. Her calcium was low, she was undernourished, and her potassium was severely low. Classic.

"Even if possible it would be extremely rare for BOTH her heart to have stopped AND to have simultaneously developed all those broken bones"

On the contrary, they often go hand in hand as they are both caused by the same thing.

What is extremely unlikely would be to have her potassium simultaneously drop so severely as a result of having been attacked, or to be attacked like that without serious bruising. Or for such signs to be missed by doctors in their own malpractice defense.

"at different stages of healing."

Nowhere did it say that those breaks were at different stages of healing.

"No one ever said she complained of pain. She would have had to complain to someone of pain (before her collapse). collapse."

She complained of fatigue and irregular periods and infertility. Again, classic.

"And please don't suggest they all broke after her collapse."

Based on my personal experience with eating disorders, and other knowledge, there is no doubt in my mind.

And I agree that the claims about her comments are unconvincing, and I think pulling her tube under these circumstances is wrong.
