Notes From Doctor Night

Patient: Leo (M)

Characteristics: Green eyes, medium blue coat, blue/black mane, average height and below average weight for age (assumed five to seven years old).

Report: Patient found lying in the road in the center of town, presented at 6:24 am with injured fetlock (determined to be fractured) as well as bite wounds (likely self inflicted). Complains of itching (initially denied, likely psychological, stress related) and shows signs of anxiousness and nervousness. Mild fever (has since cleared). No signs of other recent injuries or previous significant injuries. Mental state clear, is alert to surroundings. Denies knowing age or who guardians are. Allegedly limped through Redwood Forest, likely exacerbating fetlock fracture, and claims to have no knowledge of what bit him. Claims no knowledge of how to use magic. Accepts offers for antibiotics and help with bathing, but denies offers for help with food, as well as offers for pain medicine (previously drugged?).

Diagnosis: Likely runaway, previously abused, possibly drugged, with anxiousness and self harming tendencies as a result.

Alternate theories: (1) Runaway, previously abused, with self harming tendencies and resistance to help as a result. (2) Runaway, previously neglected, attention seeking behavior as a result. (3) Runaway, previous injury, dependant on pain medicine as a result, experiencing withdrawal

Treatment: Bed rest for several weeks, antibiotics to prevent wound infection. To be referred to foal psychologist Dr. Ivory Spark of Baltimare.

You don't have to worry about people thinking you're copying me. Honestly, it's more similar to something from the fic that inspired my fic https://www.fimfiction.net/story/35763/7/oh-to-be-old-again/interlude-1-intake-report-initial-assessment

I almost forgot about that fic. I'm still miffed at the author for abandoning it.

Yeah, self-inflicted injuries are usually discernable, especially when not exactly planned...

I could never forget about that fic. I'm just happy that other authors are picking up the idea or at least the premise.
