This is what I understand, from what I have read/watched. The x-rays in March showed further healing to the fractures that were found in the x-rays in February. If the fractures had occurred in India, they would have been completely healed, and would not have shown further healing in that month's time. I could be wrong, but that I what I have understood.
Still haven't caught up fully, but my understanding is that based on the amount of healing done in that month, it wasn't consistent with the alleged rate of healing to fit with the injuries happening in India.
Example
Sherin is in India and breaks femur. Poor nutrition makes an injury that would take say 3 months to heal on a healthy child, take more like 6 or 9 months. BUT THEN, the dr sees the injury in February and says okay, well I can't assess when this happened, so come March when the bone has properly healed for what a relatively normal, healthy person of her age would heal, the Dr is then able to say that this injury didn't happen in July or prior to July when she was adopted and then continue to heal super super slow and then miraculously begin to heal really quickly in that months time. The bones are telling a very clear story as to how they grow, how they fuse together, and so on. Just like if you were to fall and break your wrist, then you were stubborn and didn't follow the rules for how much you should lift etc, the healing would be slower and your Dr would be able to tell. Heck, I have known people who are smokers who get an xray and the Dr is able to tell they are smokers despite them saying they are not, based on how fast/slow they are healing.
JMO and how I took this statement to mean.
