Doctor Shopping
I definitely get the feeling that this woman went from doctor to doctor to find those who suited her own perception of the girls' "illnesses" instead of those who based their assessments on actual examinations and scientific medical evidence. She wanted someone who listened to her and thus could treat the girls right.
How many different doctors and specialists did they actually see during the short years the girls lived? Have any of the doctors commented afterwards on their alleged medical conditions? I understand that it is difficult to detect suspected cases of Munchhausen by Proxy precisely because the perpetrators use Doctor Shopping and move around between different healthcare units, but I still wonder how what was going on could go so completely under the radar? Especially considering that Shannan did not hide anything on her social media.
