Chapter 171 - Bhakti

“I don’t know what else we can do. We’ve tried every antifibrinolytic known to man and even did two plasma transfers. Things work for a bit, maximum a day or two, and then they just stop working. I don’t know how else to help her,” Healer Peony says in the pack hospital meeting.

For the past two weeks after the Riding Hood attack on our camp, my mates and I have been at the main pack hospital in Abilene. I was called in as a surgeon to consult on Winnie’s case. She made it through her initial surgery to attempt stop the internal bleeding, but her clotting factors were still causing her to bleed everywhere, new spots showing up all the time. Nothing is working and it doesn’t help that her body is still trying to fight the infection that is ravaging her system as we speak.

She hasn’t woken up since she was hit with whatever spell that she was and her tiny frame has already started to waste away. Her features have sunken into her skin, all access body fat gone.
