Omg!! That was so amazing. I'm so glad that Severus is Harry's true father. I love the story behind it as well.
Now Severus can really take care of Harry properly.
I'm just really curious as to what Harry's reaction is going to be, or his friends for that matter!
Maybe Harry will be happy though, now that he's grown fond of Severus. Now he'll have a father to love and protect him.
I can't wait for the next chappie!
Author's Response: Harry hasn't revealed to me what his reaction will be yet. I think it'll depend on when Sev decides is the best time to tell him. I'm happy to hear you thought the chapter was amazing, Pandora!
I especially liked this sentence: "I don't know how you did it, but somehow you managed to only erase the memories of Hadrian, and everything else was left in tact." In canon, it always seemed so naive that Hermione could do that to her parents before she even finished Hogwarts. JKR made it as if it was no hardship, but really, it is a big piece of magic - and I like that even Lily, who was gifted with charms was surprised when Severus did it... I hope this comment make sense, heh. Mila
Author's Response: Obliviation is a big piece of magic. I think Lily was even more impressed that Sev managed to cast it upon himself successfully. So many things could've gone wrong, and it was completely irresponsible and reckless of him, but he was desperate. I guess we know where Harry got his reckless streak from. ;)
At least it wasn't Dumbledore because I would have had a hard time forgiving that. As always, can't wait for more. :)
Author's Response: Although I set Dumbledore up perfectly to take the blame, it was a bit of misdirection on my part to lead you guys on the wrong path, though Dumbledore still has some answering to do. Thanks!

Great chapter can't wait for more
Author's Response: I'm glad to hear you liked the chapter. Thank you.
Wonderful, bittersweet chapter! Poor everyone!!! At list Lily left documents and memories for Severus. I have so enjoyed this story!!! Can't wait for the next chapter. Ron, Hermine and Ginny aren't as thickheaded as everyone thinks. They will have this figured out soon and demand to see Harry and be with him while he's going through all this, if for nothing else to make sure Severur is treating their friend right. Boy, what until the news of Severus being Harry's father gets out to them! WOW, I see fireworks over that one!
Ya me!!!! 300th! (Takes a bow)
Author's Response: Yes, Lily had to leave documents and memories for Severus, though they are Sev's own memories. She managed to win one argument. ;) Fireworks are definitely ahead, I can assure you that, though maybe not from what you speculated. Thanks!

Beautifully written. I absolutely love this story. Vivid personal knowledge of cancer aside, you are doing a beautiful job of showing how ill, weak, yet courageous the afflicted and the caregiver are in the face of such a dire illness - thank you for that gift. Also, I felt the letter was perfect and unexpected. Having read so many stories where the parentage of Snape has been other fault for being hidden it came as a deligtful surprise that it was Snape himself hiding the fact. What a twist. I check for updates on this storie at least twice a day. I can't wait to see what happens next. I hope it goes on for many many many more chapters. Thank you so much again for this story.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! Sometimes I think it's harder for the caregiver in not only a cancer situation, but any illness, physical or mental, especially for a parent of a sick child. Yay, I surprised you. ;) Wow, you check twice a day? I can assure you that I'm nowhere near finishing this story. I feel like in some senses it's only just begun.
