Anathema winced. Yes she knew his ties to his family were important, but right now he was her patient and she wanted him to live. Was it selfish of her to push?
No, she didn't think Loki wanted to die. He wanted to get better and strong and find Odin again. He wanted to shapeshift into whatever he wanted and get up to the mischief he couldn't while stuck in a bed.
And right now his own blood was stopping him from being healthy, and from getting better. Because if he would allow someone who matches (if someone matched that is) he could recover fully given time, and he had plenty of that.
If he didn't die first that is.
"Loki...don't you think it would be unfair to your children if you just...wasted away in a bed without even trying?"
It was a cheap shot but she had read a bit about the Norse pantheon, and they liked their strength, in whatever form that took. And while Hel may be his daughter, she really didn't think he would want to meet her like this...sick and weak and dead.
"I thought your pantheon was strong..."
And that was seeming to hit below the belt. She cast a sideways glance to John before she looked back to Loki and hoped to at least begin to get somewhere with convincing him.
Go for his weaknesses, she thought and she frowned, thinking it completely unfair.

But she really didn't want Loki to die.
