The letter was distributed this week. A orthopedic x-ray technician sent a letter to Vitamin D Council founder Dr. John Cannell about his own severe vitamin D deficiency \u2014 just 9 ng\/ml \u2014 and how that may have contributed to his son\u2019s poor bones as an infant. \u201cHis x-rays in our office looked like it could be a battered child,\u201d the man wrote in his letter to Dr. Cannell. \u201cThank God I knew better and was believed. He was then sent to physical therapy to help with balance and coordination, where on the first day fell and broke both wrists. The endocrinologists and orthopedists could find no reason for his soft bones. That was 38 years ago.\u201d Cannell wonders how many cases of broken bones in young children have been classified as child abuse instead of severe vitamin D deficiency.
