Chapter 13 - Louisa’s medical examination

Doctors documented:

Cold exposure.

Mild redness of feet.

Superficial scalp irritation from shaving.

Several small pressure marks near wrists.

No frostbite.

No serious head injury.

No lasting physical injury expected.

Emotionally:

Nightmares.

Fear of clippers.

Fear of Lydia.

Fear of being accused of taking things.

For weeks, if something went missing in our apartment, Louisa immediately said:

“Not me.”

That sentence became our therapist’s biggest concern.
