Summer fic fest. At one point, early in their life, every wizard needs to submit to surgery. The summer after his first year at Hogwarts, it is the turn of Harry Potter to do so. It’s supposed to be a trifle, but what is ordinary about the Boy-who-lived? Complications will arise. Ghosts from the past will appear and secrets people thought buried for ever are revealed. The question is, in the middle of this ordeal, will Severus Snape at long last find something meaningful to do with his life?

Author's Response: I agree. I think that Petunia will have great difficulties to change and I also believe that the way she treats Dudley is primarily selfish. In the books I seem to recall that she does make an effort to put him on a diet, doesn't she (making Harry follow the same regime)? It's an interesting question, though, whether parents who are incapable of restricting their children's food intake are to be considered abusive. On the one hand extreme overweight is a considerable health risk - you could argue that the children's health and life are in danger. On the other hand, at least in my country, I don't think that it has ever happened that a child has been removed from their guardians on those grounds. Maybe it occurs in other countries? When Harry arrived at Hogwarts, no one expected Professor Snape to be his favourite teacher – no one, except the mysteriously familiar witch teaching DADA.
AU. Romance tag is for Lily/Severus, but isn't relevant until later in the story.

Author's Response: Thank you! Lily hasn't explained her plan yet. She only mentioned that she intends to have Harry help her with Severus and such. More info to come. I agree! Poor Harry. Thanks for the review.
Author's Response: Thanks! Ron's perspective of some things will change with time; he doesn't really know better yet.
