(You know I got permission from you)
Cherryheart walked into the den coughing and sneezing horribly. Worse than when she caught white cough in early warrior hood. "Forestb-" her words where cut off by the sound of terrible coughing "Forestbreak! I feel worse than ever!" Her voice was barley understandable with her mucus filled throat

Forestbreak yawned and stood up from her nest, stretching and blinking her sleep-filled eyes. Her gaze diverted to Cherryheart, who was coughing up a storm and sounded pretty sick. She knitted her brow and padded over to the warrior, squinting and glancing her over.
"Yeah, you look like hell," she agreed, straightening up and curling her tail around her paws. The medicine cat could hear that she had quite a bit of mucus in her throat. "Hm. I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but this sounds like greencough." She placed her tail across the warrior's forehead. "Fever. Is your chest hurting? Are you having some trouble breathing?"

(I just noticed I have more posts than you. That's wierd)
Cherryheart nodded after Forestbreak had asked the questions. Letting out another terrible cough, Cherryheart could barely even sigh.

"I see." She squinted again and stood up. "I have to say, it sounds like greencough to me," she muttered half to herself. "Very well, then. You need catmint. Go lie down in that nest over there, and help yourself to some water." With that, she turned around and began rummaging through her herbs, looking for a few particular leaves. First, she pulled out a sprig of tansy, then some coltsfoot, and finally, a leaf of catmint.
"Okay," she mewed, padding back over to Cherryheart. She set down the tansy in front of her first. "Try to get this down."

Cherryheart obeyed every word Forestbreak had said. She layed on a nest and drank a bit of water. Once Forestbreak had given her the herbs, the water was barely down. She finally swallowed the water and began to nibble the herbs. It took a few minutes for it all to be down.

Forestbreak waited patiently as Cherryheart drank the water and swallowed the tansy. When she was done, she placed the coltsfoot in front of her. "This will probably be harder to swallow," she said, gesturing to the bristles on the thick leaf. "I'd suggest taking some water with it. It'll help it get down more easily."
The medicine cat pushed her crudely concave stone filled with water toward Cherryheart, flicking her tail in its general direction.

Cherryheart nibbled at it and drank more water trying her hardest to keep it in. After finishing the Coltsfoot, Cherryheart coughed again, nearly lost the water she just swallowed down, but was able to shut her mouth and swallow.

"Good," Forestbreak mewed, a soft smile spreading across her face as Cherryheart swallowed the herbs. "Try to keep those down. They'll help your shortness of breath. Now, let's see," she mumbled, glancing around and then picking up the catmint she'd set down a moment ago. She nudged it in front of the sick warrior. "This'll taste a lot better, I promise. Eat this."
The gray tabby flicked her tail towards the water wordlessly again, inviting her to drink more. Water would be crucial (along with the catmint) in helping to get her fever down.
