I regret to inform you that Minerva McGonagall has been transferred to St Mungo's. Minutes into her examination she went into shock and, while I was able to calm her down with a light sedative, it was required that she be transferred as she is now in a rather serious condition. My own examination concluded that Minerva had suffered severe internal injuries due to the accident. Keep in mind she is now in a situation where she will get the proper care that I can not give to her in our simple school infirmary. She will be on the receiving end of the finest medical treatment available.

Her family has been notified, her brother and sister now on their way to the infirmary where they shall be told specific details of their sister's injuries. Minerva will return to Hogwarts after much needed rest and recuperation, and the school shall be notified when she wakes.

Sincerely,

Juliet Kepler.

"She's been moved to St Mungo's?" Pomona frowned. She glanced at Poppy, hoping her friend would be able to clear up the confusion. "Are we able to visit her?"

"Christmas holidays are merely a week or so away." Albus reminded the girls. "I'm sure your parents will allow you to visit." He placed the parchment on his desk and sat down.

"We should probably check on her brother and sister." Rolanda spoke up, helping Poppy get to her feet.

"Madame Kepler stated that they would be in her office." Albus offered as the girls agreed to leave. "I'm sure you shall be permitted to see them."

"Thankyou Professor Dumbledore." Poppy replied, she and Pomona already at the door.

"Thankyou for everything." Rolanda added sincerely. The three girls disappeared out the door and Albus was left alone. A small chirp from Fawkes interupted his thoughts.

"She shall be alright Fawkes." Albus chuckled. Many afternoons Minerva had sat and talked with Fawkes before her extra Tranfiguration lessons began. The bird enjoyed her company, and Albus couldn't help but wonder if his early rebirth had something to do with the young witch's injury. "When your wings have fully grown, then you may visit her." Fawkes chirped again in delight.
