    whew *breathes* I'm happy Harry was reasonable and Severus was able to explain.
    Now I must prepare myself for "A Flurry of Precautions" :D
    More candy yay! TY!

    Author's Response: I'm happy he was reasonable, too, though I think he didn't have much in him to be unreasonable. Emotionally, he's drained from his breakdown still. Yes, now you must prepare for "A Flurry of Precautions." ;) Thanks!

    Good work. Liked the lighter chaper. Yea, need a little break!! "A Flurry of Precautions" hmmm, sounds like our kitty is back! I love Flurry.

    Author's Response: Thanks. Yes, our kitty will be back. She'll give us a humorous moment before we delve back into the darker stuff. =)

    Yay! Another wonderful chapter! I'm glad Harry took the news that he'd already had one injection so well. I mean, yeah, he was upset at first, but really, who wouldn't be? But I'm glad he listened to Sev's explaination, and that it satisfied him.

    So, we'll get to see more of Flurry next chapter? I can't wait! Here's a smile for you! :D

    Author's Response:

    Thanks! Harry's driven by pain at the moment, so I think Sev's explanation hit the chord that he avoid a potentially painful procedure. Plus, he's in a delicate state emotionally at the moment and isn't up for a fight or argument. 

    Yes, we'll definitely see more of Flurry next chapter. *smiles* I got it. =)

    I'm glad Harry learned the spell to change his wand. It sounds like it made him happier and a very cool thing to be able to do. I'm glad that Severus was able to stop him from having another breakdown when he found about that they'd started the chemo early. Thanks for the awesome update!

    Author's Response: I'm glad he learned it, too. It's amazing what a little spell can do, isn't it? Despite Sev insisting he isn't a shrink teaching kids and being a spy gives him a great practical education concerning the psychological nature of people, and this will help him with Harry. You're welcome and thank you!

    Once in the chapter you said 'Miss Lucy'.
    Is that the same as Miss Adamson or was that an Oops?

    Author's Response: It's the same as Miss Adamson. In Chapter 14, I believe, she gave Harry the option to call her Miss Lucy and as that part was in his POV, he sometimes calls her that in his head.

    Fantastic chappie, as usual. I'm so relieved that Harry wasn't upset with Severus for starting the treatment, without asking first. I was really on tenterhooks when the healer brought it up like that! :O

    Oh, I just love how gentle and considerate that Snape is being, and somehow you just pull it off and it's believable. You just did the transition so smoothly, that I didn't even blink an eyelid, or question it, like I do with some stories. You've done such a marvelous job with this story.

    You write like you have experience with this dreadful disease.

    I can't wait for more Ella, simply beautiful writing. That's all I can say.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks, Pandora! Your review really made me smile. I'm relieved that Harry wasn't upset, too. 

    I'm so glad to hear it's believable. I know it's quick, but for some reason it works. Even I can't explain it. ;) I guess it goes to show that a serious illness really changes a lot of things. I mean what's petty reasons for "hating" each other when there's a sick child in the picture.

    My lollipop was loverly. And so is the Severus/Harry adorableness here :]

    Author's Response: Thanks! Did you get a strawberry, grape, butterscotch, or cinnamon one? They can be quite adorable can't they? ;)

    Great chapter, as usual. I'm glad Harry understood Snape's decision. Snape is being very patient and I love it.

    One thing though is that you continue to switch between calling the Specialist "Miss Adamson" and "Miss Lucy". It is very jarring to read. I would suggest that you stick to one name during narration, unless it is from a character's POV who calls her such.

    Anyhow, good job!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks. Snape has no choice, but to be patient. He knows Harry's very sick and has to make allowances for that. 

    As for the Miss Lucky vs. Miss Adamson thing, that part is from Harry's POV although it wasn't as intimate POV compared to the last chapter. It might've gotten lost a little since there were many things to describe, but thanks for letting me know. I'll try to work on that.

    Ahhhh so sweet can't wait for more

    Author's Response: Thanks! I plan to spend much of the day tomorrow writing, so hopefully I'll get that the next chapter out sooner than this one.
