Well ---- you're accusing Terri of causing her own injuries by "overdieting" which there is no indication she was doing. There is no proof that she was an anorexic, she told her mother she was eating. She wanted to see a different doctor which makes me think she was concerned about her health.

The Doctor's say it was caused by a potassium imbalance. That's the only fact we know. The next step is to find out what causes a potassium imbalance in women her age. From what I understand (and I will try to get material to back this up) is the overuse of laxatives and diuretics are to blame. That is not uncommon with young women who are obsessed with their weight, as it has been described Terri as being. Again, I am not saying this is what happened, but it's taking the facts and piecing it together. NOT PURE SPECULATION.
