They suspected that he was taking the Vitamin D himself, as though he had Munchausen Syndrome. Hence the note about "the dramatic course of care."
Poisoning with VD3 is objectively weird. It's not very effective. If she had used tetrahydrozoline eyedrops, he'd be a goner after one dose -- and, with his heart and electrolyte balance troubles, odds are that nobody would be the wiser. We therefore have to surmise that she didn't want to kill him, but wanted to keep him sick, reliant, and compliant.

- hyeonwho4 2y agoIn another post, he states that the 960 mg/l of calcium was found in his water. That would be enough to cause hypercalcemia if drinking 3 l per day, let alone 6 l.
- seszett 2y ago> Poisoning with VD3 is objectively weird. It's not very effective But they have small children, which are supposed to take vitamin D supplement that comes in this kind of bottle. So it's both easy for her and probably easier to explain, however vitamin D comes in an oil suspension, not water, so it seems to me that it wouldn't mix well in water. She could have put potassium in his water and vitamin D in oil and food. That seems more likely to me. Edit come to think of it, they did find elevated vitamin D levels in the water so I guess it was somehow a water-soluble formula. Not sure why she mentioned potassium then.
