She wouldn't have had a problem with giving them the relevant medical records (it was just a simple injury), my issue is that with the temporary nature of the problem there was almost no evidence and what little there was was not in English.

TSA didn't make an issue about it.

What did surprise me is China did a far better job of handling the situation than the US did and they had a family restroom while in the US I had to wheel her into the men's room.
