A GIANT thank you to my daughter who influenced my choices of Ron's medical problems and punishments, oops I ment treatments.
The next morning no one would even look in Ron's direction. When he tried to talk to anyone they just ignored him or moved away. Not even Percy would spare a glance at him.

"Prat's" he thought.
As he sat down to his (to him) meager breakfast an owl winged its way to him holding a familiar red envelope.
"Great, that's all I need now. Mum yelling at me." He thought gloomily.
However, instead of his mother's voice (that he could tune out and ignore while he concentrated on more important things- like eating) his father's voice boomed across the hall, startling all five Weasley children.

YOU EITHER START BEHAVING LIKE A HUMAN BEING OR I WILL BRING YOU HOME AND HAVE AUNT MURIEL TUTOR YOU. THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING. DON'T WASTE IT."
With that the whole hall was shocked into silence.
"Ouch! Aunt Muriel? Low blow Dad" murmured Fred.
"I don't think I ever heard Dad yell like that" commented Ginny.
"Dad rarely raises his voice, but, as you heard, he can do it if he needs to" said George.
Ron sat at his table in shock. Dad… yelling at me? It had never happened before. Ron's world was turning upside down.

"Mr Ronald Weasley is to report to the infirmary. He is excused from classes until lunch time. Everyone else off you go."
"Great." Thought Ron. "The old bat had to embarrass me with everyone watching. But at least I get out of charms with the snakes and history."
As Ron made his solitary way to the infirmary, Harry was sitting in the charms classroom, chatting with his class mates.
"Well, we all know what happened in the dorms last night. The question is, what are we going to do about it? I know that the professors are following their procedures, but I think a few of us need to show what we think of all this." Said Harry

"Hey Potter." Called Draco.
"What do you want Malfoy?"
"Glad to see the Weasel get what he deserves. It IS about time someone did something about him."
"What do you know about it?"
"Besides the show in the hall last night, rumour has it that he was stealing from you all last night. I was going to offer you a charm to keep intruders out of your things. But if you are going to be like that I will keep it."
"Why? You never do something for nothing. What do you want?"
"Have you ever wondered why I don't like that red haired walking food disposal? When I was a kid my mother invited all the pureblood children my age to my seventh birthday party. That is an important birthday in the magical world. HE came with his mother and ruined the whole day for me. He demolished my cake, broke my new broom, scared my kneezle away and after he left I found that one of my new toys was stolen. Mr Weasley returned it with his apologies the next day, but it wasn't the same. That's why I don't like him."

"Whatever. But my father taught me a charm that keeps people from taking your stuff. It also paints the person green to show what they were trying to do. They don't turn back to normal until the person confesses to the owner of what they were trying to steal. Only the owner can cancel the charm on them. Do you want it or not?"
"Mr Malfoy, that sounds like a charm that should be shared with the class. Please come up here and demonstrate it." Remarked Professor Flitwick.
"Yes Professor. On the condition that everyone swears that they will never tell Weasley about it."
"That sounds fair to me. Let's get started then"
In the infirmary Ron was not having a good day.
"To begin, please get changed into this gown and then sit on the bed. Call me when you are ready." ordered Madam Pomphrey.

"Alright. First we are going to do a full physical exam. Then we will see what has to happen…hmm… you are thirteen aren't you?"
"Yeah, so what?"
"Your cholesterol levels are what I would expect for an eighty year old Muggle! Your gallbladder is so distended that I am surprised you are not writhing in pain on the floor. Your liver is about to start shutting down and so are your kidneys. Do you drink alcohol at all? No? Because it seems like you are on the verge of cirrhosis, a nasty condition, that one. You also have several parasitic infestations. Most of this can be fixed but you will have to follow a strict diet and take many potions each day. Do you think you can do that? Because if you can't, you will be dead before you are sixteen. I am also seeing the beginnings of a rather nasty skin infection."
"But I feel fine. I'm not going on any stupid girly diet. And you can forget any of your bloody potions. They all taste like s…gurgle"
Madam Pomphrey lost her patience and cast a soap suds spell at Ron's mouth.
"Now IF you can talk like a rational person I will stop."
Ron nodded frantically.
"Very well then." She said cancelling the spell.
Madam Pomphrey started handing Ron vials of potions as she talked.
"Now, let us continue. First you need an anti-gas potion to help stop the flatulence. Heaven knows that the boys you dorm with will be glad for this one. Now an anti-parasitic. You will need the toilet soon so off you go."
One hour and one very sore bottom later.
"Well, now that that is done we can continue. This one is to kick start your liver and kidneys, and do not pull those faces at me young man. I didn't do this to you so stop complaining. At lunch today you will be starting your low fat, low sugar and low salt diet to start helping the potions to work. Tomorrow we will start you on a potion to help your gallbladder and the day after for your cholesterol. You will also come here before each meal and before curfew to get your anti- gas potion. If I have to come looking for you then you will think that Professor Snape is the kindest person you could know compared to me! After we finish talking you will go and shower, wash yourself with this special soap and come out here so I can help you put the cream on the infection. You will be doing this three times each day. Now, are there any questions?"
"Don't I get a say in any of this?"
A new voice came from the doorway.
"No you don't" said Arthur Weasley. "I have told the school that any treatment that they feel is needed will be done whether you like it or not."
"But Dad…"
"But nothing Ron. It is do this or go home. You can chose if you really want to but I will warn you now. At home you will be tutored by your Aunt Muriel. You will be expected to do your chores in addition to your school work and your mother will not be coddling you anymore. It is time to grow up a bit son. Let me know what your choice will be. Once you make it there will be no turning back."
