9-12

chapter 9 is ok, its not the most interesting of chapters that i have read so far. here we find that john is ok now but cannot remember what happened that left him in tht state. all he knows is tht what ever it was tht caused it was all in his dairy which he still had a hold of. they get married sealing it off with promising eachother to never open the diary unless in emergencies. arthur worried about lucy arranges dr seward to examine her but this illness  so happens to be out of what he is capable of, so calls someone who is better......his teacher professor Van Helsing who examines her and leavesss shortly after. Renfield on the other hand says that he is sick of doing all the things he does over and over again. he doesnt want to catch flies and so onn..then why doesnt he just leave and change?? few days later, lucy health begins to worsen again.

chapter 10: during this chapter a blood transfusion is performed twice by dr seward, even donating his own blood once. after the first attack van helsing orders dr seward to stay up with her so that no one gets to her but dr seward being tired and sleepy falls asleep unknowingly waking up to find lucy pale and weak in front of him. after this second incident van helsing orders a large box of garlic which he orders lucy to wear around her neck. he places garlic all around the house for further protection. he feels confident and assure dr seward that lucy will now be able to sleep without being attacked.
chapter 11: throughout this chapter lucy is in danger. again through some misunderstanding lucy is found in a near death state. mrs westenra, lucy's mother had removed the garlic from her room leaving her open to the attack. another blood transfusion is needed, so van helsings blood saves her from dying. few days later, september 17 a wolf manages to get into lucy's room, and with lucy was her mother who was accompaniying her because they were both scared. as the glass shattered and the wolf howled mrs westenra has a heartattack causing her death. the wolf leaves just as the maids of the house enter the room. they are horrified at the sight of dead mistress and dont know what to do. they go away to have a drink to calm down only to pass out as someone had spiked their drinks before leaving lucy all alone in the house.
chapter 12: the day after the madness that went down in chapter 11 van helsing and dr seward arrive at the house and are horrified with what they are seeing. the maids all passed out, mr westenra dead and lucy again nearly dead. this time however quincy morris is there to donate blood for a blood transfusion as neither of the other two had any left to give. Again mina writes to lucy that she and john have gotton married and are in england now, but lucy was dying. as she id dying van helsing tries to put garlic around her but she shoves him out the way, she doesnt seem to want to live any longer. with a seductive voive trying to seduce holmwood she asks for him to kiss her with which van helsing dissaproves. he tells him to kiss her only on the forehead and so he does as she dies in front of them.
thats pretty much what happens during the 4 chapters :)
