Mrs Chan is found lying at the bottom of her stairs by her daughter at 09:00 on 14/06/2016. Mrs Chan is dressed in a nightgown; the last thing she remembers is rushing to the toilet at about 10pm.

She also has pain in her hip and pelvis. Her right leg is shorter than the left and it is externally rotated.
