What was she doing with that wrist at the time, to ‘sprain’ it while sitting in a tub of water?

"Doctors advised the 70-year-old to rest, but the pain grew unbearable so she was taken to the hospital early Wednesday morning"

Unbearable pain? What a crock. I slipped on black ice back in 2000, landed on my arse, and put my hands out to buffer my landing. I had a little discomfort in my left wrist afterwards, and thought I'd simply sprained it. Went to work as usual, but followed it up a few days later with a visit to the Orthopedic doctor so they could x-ray it. Ended up with a cast for 4-6 weeks. First time I'd ever broken a bone. The slight pain I had was hardly "unbearable."

Throwing soap dishes.

Which begs the question about physical therapy.

They could have her exercising with throwing lighter stuff... pencils and pens, before working up to the usual ashtrays.
