Not good - I
When a witch was in recovery, it was the extremely vulnerable state that she found herself in. Not only was extremely vulnerable but the magic that she was constantly surrounded with was no longer strong and wilful.

After the death of her sister, Nathaniel had made sure that she did not have enough strength to survive on her own and it took a bit of a time for her to realise that. If she had earlier she would have definitely not left without any ingredients that were present in her lab and not available anywhere else.
She sighed in frustration and threw the mushroom on the ground before standing up and walking with the help of a stick.
