Dean was was a very patient person, but he wasn't a very good patient. His recovery, though magically aided was not going to be an overnight process, and all he wanted to do was get back home. Though part of him knew that being home would just throw into full view the thought that he hadn't wanted to face yet. He'd been told, gently as possible, that his right hand was going to take a very long time to heal. Worse, he'd been told there was a chance he wouldn't regain the full use of it. Considering that he could hardly feel his hand at all, and his fingers didn't respond when he moved them, that fear was very very real.
His bones had grown back. It had been an excruciating process, even with the medicated potion he'd been given to sleep, and it made him wonder how Harry had borne it in fourth year. But it was all the muscle and nerve damage that was the problem. He wasn't sure if the damage to them could be repaired and from the looks of the mediwizards and witches, they weren't sure either.
Dean looked down at his carefully bandage right hand and exhaled slowly doing his best to keep back the sudden feeling of futility that overcame him. What would he do if he couldn't use his hand again? He looked up then as someone came into the room.
