Chapter 9:

" It wasn't easy to find but I did it," Carmen said," I found out what Eric has."

" Well what is it?" Chance said in an irritated tone, The small group was making their way up to Sky's room where Eric was as Carmen explained what he had found.

"It's a disease called Poly Arteritis Nodosa," Carmen said as the group entered the room quietly.

" What?" Chance said not understanding what Carmen had said causing the young medic to sigh.

" Poly Arteritis Nodosa," Carmen said again," it's a type of Lupus."

" Okay," Chance said stressing the word.

" It's an illness that people can get at any age," Carmen continued," and yes-," Carmen's sentance was cut off by Rion clamping his hand over the young medic's mouth.

" We can't tell Sky something that might upset her now can we Carmen," Rion asked. Carmen shook his head realizing what he had almost done.

" How did you figure out what it was?" Chance asked as Rion returned to his spot next to Sky.

" Poly Arteritis Nodosa like many illnesses has symptoms," Carmen said, "I just followed them until they led to me realizing what it was."

" And the symptoms are?" Rion asked.

"Fatigue,weakness,fever,abdominal pains,decreased appetite,weight loss,and muscel and joint pains," Carmen said.

" So how do we know if he is showing the right signs?" Rion asked.

" Well for one thing Sky did say he was feverish, and he has been fatigued since we've known him," Carmen said

" He has been really weak these past few days I've known him," Sky said finally getting into the conversation.

" Has he eaten anything since you brought him here"? Chance asked her.

" No," Sky told him.

" What about the pain?" aked Rion.

" Eric are you awake?" asked Sky. Eric only nooded in response.

" Eric are you in any pain at all?" Carmen asked, again he only nooded, " proves my point," Carmen said," He has Poly Arteritis Nodosa."

" Can it be cured?" Chance asked.

" No," Carmen replied, " once someone gets it they have it for life."

" Can it kill," Rion asked in a serious tone.

"Yes, I believe it can if it's not treated," Carmen said.

" I thought there was no cure," Chance said.

" There isn't," Carmen said," but there are treatments, whitch are different from cures."

"really," asked Chance completly clueless, making everyone in the room exept the sleeping Eric snicker at him

So that was chapter 9. Okay I Did my homework on this illness and it is a real one. I will admit I did have help finding it on google. This is the perfect illness for my story and it's exactly what I was looking for so I'm happy.
