[quote=Anonymous]My MIL was so thin when she was hospitalized right before her death that the nurses thought my FIL was engaged in elder abuse (not feeding her). Nurses didn’t know that she had spent her entire life trying to be thin, used laxatives for decades, ate only half a hard boiled egg for breakfast, half a protein bar for lunch, and maybe grilled asparagus for dinner (along with a lot of white wine). She was “allergic” to any foods with fat or a higher calorie count. Aside from the wine, I think I calculated her calorie intake at around 400/day. But she was thin! Ultimately this meant she had osteoporosis and was incredibly fragile, and when she became ill she had NO physical strength or reserves on which to rely. She had starved herself for years and at the end it pretty much killed her. [/quote]
