This quest is an oddball.  ‘Simply' get yourself down to 50% of your health or lower.  Better yet, cripple yourself or lose one of your limbs, that would be perfect!

It's remarkably easy to complete this quest.  If your Medicine Skill is high enough, explain Moira how things work.  This fulfills the optional requirement too, no worries there.  If your Medicine Skill isn't high enough, well, it's best to cripple a leg somehow, right?
You don't get crippled when a Mole Rat starts eating you (no pun intended).  A far better idea is to leap off the roof of the Atom's Church.  You can get there by taking the stairs and leaping over other roofs first.  If you take a true leap of faith and land in the pool next to the rocket, chances are you'll cripple a leg.  Be sure to save beforehand to try again if you don't.

Return to Moira and she'll be all overexcited as usual, but she'll also give you a neat reward: The Environment Suit has a 30 Rad Resistance stat (and 5 MED).

Tip: Before you speak to Moira about the next objective, you may want to check  out the Mirelurk Lair in the upcoming section by yourself.  If you haven't accepted the quest yet, you can kill all you like!  By the time you accept the quest, nothing is mentioned about this and you'll have an easier time completing it.
