I've read your Tumblr enough to know you're made of tougher stuff than this. You can wallow in misery AFTER Sweetie is found, you need to stop feeling sorry about how little you can do physically and you focus on how you're gonna comfort Sweetie when you see her again. The last thing she needs is to see the pony she looks up to a crying wreck because she wants to look for her but she can't. You fought on the streets and clawed up from that, show that will and spine now when she needs you most.

Look, guy, I don’t need a motivational speech right now.
I got an IV in my foreleg pumping painkiller into my system. I’m kinda f-… messed up right now. This stuff messes with your brain, you know?
Just… keep doing what you’re doing. I know you’re the one helping find Sweetie. I’m grateful.
Feel better Lyra! Keep on playing! (Maybe a cover of Sympathy for Nightmare Moon?)
I'm glad you're okay, don't worry about Sweetie, Gilda and Basil are searching with Gilda also doing a sweep for Zecora for some possible back up maps. You just focus on resting and don't worry.

It’s not enough… I know I can’t do anything, but…
It’s not fair…
Where are you? I will bring medical attention!
I’m at the hospital. I’m up to my eyeballs in medical attention. If you can, contact Applebloom and see if you can get directions to Zecora’s house. I think Gilda and Basil are trying to find her to get an idea where Sweetie might be.
I'll find Sweetie Belle. You just get Diamond Mint to the hospital.
Looks like somepony already got her here.
Hey Lyra, fancy meeting you here. *Looks over from an adjacent hospital bed* Oh, i'm off for some xrays, ttyl.
Well now! This is-
Oh, alright. Good luck!
No. No I’m not.
Doctors say I had a hairline fracture in my leg before I twisted my ankle. It was recent, probably caused by Gilda when I got thrown into a wall. Not her fault, though.
Limping on it made it much worse. I’m down for a good long while.
*calms self* What's wrong? Why the hospital?
You dork. That was my speech detection software going haywire!
Probably from all the screaming and swearing between sobs of agony.
But thanks for caring enough to send me a message, though!
What happened? Gild'a off looking for Sweetie so we have that covered so you needf to give people an idea of where we can find you. I've contacted Applejack to see if she can help look for you, all we need is a general location.

Thanks for the effort. I’m alright, sort of.
Find Sweetie. But remain calm. She’s okay. When you guys find her, don’t freak out, remain calm or you’ll make this worse.
And then she carried me, crying, screaming, and swearing to the hospital. Where they proceeded to pump me full of pain killers so I could sit still long enough to have my leg x-rayed.
Thanks, by the way, Anna.

Anna: Are you Lyra? Twilight said you can help me find some single mares.
I don’t know who-o you a-are… And ri-ight now I d-don’t care…
JUST GET ME TO THE FREAKING HOSPITAL!!
If she only showed Sweetie, then we can't have you bolting into the forest with no clue how to proceed. The best bet is to head straight to Zecora's cabin and see what she knows. She's the one who has the most extensive knowledge of the Forest so she could have an idea of where the cave is.

I… can’t move…
I… can b-ba-arely t-talk… Hurts so…
No-ot fair… Sweet-tie…
She says it's Scoots old cave, want me to see if I can get through to Applebloom? Maybe she has an idea.

Scoot only ever showed Sweetie where it was…
Was it… near the Everfree Forest? How deep in was it…?
This is a fascinating line of ideas and I'd love to continue it but Sweetie Belle seems to be lost in a cave freezing half to death so I think we should all focus on getting someone out to her while you get to Mint.

I… I don’t know where the cave is…
