alt_sinistraStudents and guests:
We look forward to gathering today at 1pm in the Great Hall. From there, we’ll split up into some other nearby spaces for the presentations. You may wish to bring something for notes. We have some excellent specialists coming, and I’m sure they’ll have a great deal to share.
Again, please remember that you will be divided into four groups, and that our CCF students will remain for an extra hour for some additional training.
I have had a question about how graphic the material might be. I’ve been told that while the instructors will be medically precise, you needn’t worry in this session about looking at injuries or anything of the kind. (The exception may be our CCF sessions, depending on the case studies they choose.) Should you feel queasy for any reason, please quietly excuse yourself as needed without disturbing others.

Re: Private message to Poppy Pomfrey
Date: 2011-12-04 03:38 am (UTC)It was rich, though, when he finally persuaded Mr Marvolo to let him examine his shoulder and found no scarring at all after carrying on and on about how it requires the highest expertise to manage shoulder wounds and how ticklish it is to heal dragon injuries, especially.
And then didn't he talked himself in gyrations when there was only that feathery line of newly healed skin! Then it was 'how fortunate that it was the tail spikes and not the claws' and 'how exceedingly lucky he'd only been grazed and not impaled'.
He was just digging in with how the boy could expect to suffer residual pain when using magic and how his range of motion might be permanently impaired when Healer Mytens made it clear she had her own presentation to make and he could take his fascination with Mr Marvolo's injury out into the corridor if he wished to pursue his inquiries with the boy.
I thought the session with Mr Finnigan was excellent. I do wonder if that was merely fortuitous or whether Grandin talked the boy into allowing himself to be hexed in order to have such a vivid injury for demonstrating primary, secondary, and tertiary treatments.
