You should aware that beginning immediately, owl post to Hogwarts will be subject to search. I would not wish for you, or for any of the infirmary's suppliers, to be caught unawares -- particularly not when your diligence towards the question of provision, by any means necessary, has proven so beneficial to those under your care.
My hands are, sadly, tied in many aspects -- but if there is any need you find yourself unable to fill, you have but to say the word and I will set myself to the problem. I freely acknowledge the debt I owe you; you should not hesitate to call upon me to make payments upon it.

Date: 2013-03-04 05:11 am (UTC)I take it that you must be managing well enough, since I've not seen you in here this week. Do remember that we agreed you would come in once a fortnight, whether you felt it needed or not. I believe that means I should see you in the next day or two, does it not? But, as we're on the topic, tell me how you are feeling. Any return of weakness? tremor? pain? sudden-onset sleepiness? more need of the cane at one time of day than another? any memory impairment? headache?
I will stop peppering you with questions, but I do wish to keep a weather eye on your condition. I've invested a great deal in seeing you improve; backsliding is not to be tolerated.

Date: 2013-03-04 05:27 am (UTC)I have been dreadfully weary, but not more so than you warned me to expect, and only when I have overestimated the amount of energy I have to spare towards the end of the day. The tremors and numbness with which I had been plagued have entirely ceased (for which fact alone I would be endlessly grateful); as you cautioned, the weakness feels entirely due to the length of time for which I was incapacitated, and the stiffness and soreness feels equally as though I am exercising muscles long accustomed to idleness or injury rather than wellness.
I am painfully aware of how much strength I have yet to recover, but also aware, for the first time since my injury, of the possibility of that recovery visible upon the distant horizon, if that makes any appreciable amount of sense.
Do not imagine I am not deeply grateful for the investment of time, energy, and resources you have made. I am well aware that your primary concern is the wellbeing of the students entrusted to your care, as should it be; I am only grateful to have been the fortunate beneficiary of such devotion to duty.
Regards,
Antonin
