    I cried. I cried because of having gone through the same thing. The "why me" card will pop up numerous times during treatment. I used to call it my "pity party." The worse I felt the more likely I was to have one.....I remember driving home from Albquerque after a treatment, hour and half drive, and bearly making it into the house and bathroom. Yes, the vomiting starts that quick! You nailed this chapter. My "Snape" was my wonderful hubby. But there was some days I felt so rotten I didn't even want him around. Great chapter! Can't wait for more. I'm beginning to think this should be required reading for any one who will be going through this battle!!!

    Author's Response: *Hugs* "Pity parties?" I don't think Harry will ever use that wording thanks to his upbringing and fame, but I'm sure this won't be the last time Harry questions why it happened to him. It's so great to hear from you that I nailed this chapter. I'm glad you had your "Snape" when you needed him, and as for the required reading bit *blushes,* that's an amazing compliment. Thank you.

    I want to go ang give them both a big hug - Harry because he's so scared and Snape because he's just lovely.

    Author's Response: Go ahead, but Snape might not like it. Oh, and be sure to wash your hands well because Sev takes Harry's compromised immune system really seriously. ;) Thanks!

    Oh, how about lolipops AND a tissue.

    That was sad...yes, but on the other hand hopeful, sweet and happy too. Harry finally has someone strong to lean on and that will always be there for him. Something, every child deserves.

    So beautiful. I love this story.

    Oh, so what flavour lollys do you have?

    Author's Response:

    Thanks so much! I don't think Harry will view it that way, but as an outside reader I see how it can come across that way as well. 

    I think you can have both. ;) As for the lollys, I have strawberry, grape, butterscotch, and cinnamon.

    Well, it was a gut-clencher, that's for sure. Very REAL, you know? And cancer is depressing. There's nothing else to say about it.

    Author's Response: Trust me, I know. If you thinking reading it was gut-clenching, writing it was ten times worse. I wrote it over three days and by the end, I just wanted it to be done.

    That was so sad! I felt so bad for Harry. I'm glad Severus was there for him. Wonderful update!

    Author's Response: I feel bad for Harry, too, and I'm the one who put him through it! Thanks!

    Aww, that was sad. Depressing? Yes. But kinda heartwarming, as well. Harry is so distressed, I think that *he* is the one who needs homemade lollipops.

    I think my favorite part was Snape telling Harry that he'd carry him if it came to that, and then almost as if to prove that point, he carried him to his bed. And then sat with him. Sigh. So sad.

    This was a much anticipated chapter, I think for a lot of people, and it was good! In a sad sorta way. ;-)

    Author's Response:

    Maybe Sev knows how to make lollipops? lol. I think that might be stretching it. 

    I totally didn't intend to write that part like that, but now that you point it out, I really like how that turned out. Perhaps I subconsciously knew it?

    Thanks!

    Sad but it needs to.

    Thanks.

    Author's Response: You're quite welcome. Thank you. It is sad and it needed to be, maybe we'll get a light moment in the next chapter.

    Brilliant chapter. Is sev harry's father or is he going to adopt him.
    I hope he doesn't over react when he finds out about the injection.
    Keep up the good work

    Author's Response:

    Good question. That part is planned out, you'll just have to keep reading to see...

    I don't know how Harry is going to react yet, but it'll definitely be in the next chapter.

    Thanks!

    So going into the hankie here. I feel so bad for Harry, but I'm glad that Snape is there for him. I think you nailed it right on.

    Author's Response: Thanks! Harry had to fall apart. It was inevitable, but he got lucky with Snape being around when it happened.

    I am not depressed. Feels like Snape already started to piece Harry back together. Mila

    Author's Response: Thanks! I forget sometimes that I spent hours working on what took you a fraction of that time to read. Of course after that long a chapter like that weighs you down. I'm glad to hear it feels like Snape started to piece Harry back together.
