The Delicate One

Chapter Two

         Doctor Wilson checked the test results for a third time. Desperately hoping that his eyes were deceiving him. Congenital heart disease. In all his years of being a healer, he'd only seen it twice. For whatever reason wizards just didn't have those types of diseases as often as muggles. Thankfully he knew how to perform the surgery though. Unfortunately the poor little angel will always have to deal with the side effects of her condition. The little baby resting uneasily in the incubator was in for a hard life. For now though he needed to focus his full attention on performing the surgery.

           He prepped the baby for surgery and sent the nurse to tell the worried parents of his findings. Molly burst into tears again the minute the nurse explained what was going on. Arthur however kept a stoic expression as he tightly clutched his wife's hand. The two babies in the crib next them made adorable cooing sounds,completely oblivious to their little sister's distress.
