Tales from childhood: My diagnosis.

"You've lost a lot of weight!" my colleague said me.

Indeed, I have become very, very thin lately. Although I eat as usual. Also, I often fell chills, even though it's warm outside.

Before, I thought it was just a cold. Now I decided to see a doctor.

"I came to get tested for a serious illness. I suspect I gave this." I told the hospital.

A few days later, I went to get the test results.

Oh, no! The results are positive! I have a fatal disease! I need to tell Timothy and my boss about this!

I, the lady in red, decided to tell you in more detail how everything really is. What should I do now?!

Panacea.

Panacea (Πανάκεια) was a goddess of healing in Greek mythology. Asclepius (Ἀσκληπιός) (Aesculapius) was her father and Epione (Ἠπιόνη) (Ēpiónē) her mother.

Machaon (Μαχάων) (Macháōn) and Podalirius (Ποδαλείριος) were Panacea's brothers. Hygieia (Ὑγιεία) (Hygēa), Iaso (Ἰασώ), and Aceso (Ἀκεσώ) (Akesó) were her sisters.

Panacea had the ability to transform ordinary plants into medicines. She and her father Asclepius helped warriors during battles.
