    Still intense, but not so stressful this time. I know, I know: ups and downs, right? Good chapter!

    Author's Response: Ups and downs is right. Harry's starting to get a taste of what his life will be like for a while. Thanks!

    This was such a great chapter! The whole story is excellent! I love how it can be so emotional and at others times silly and fun. It's so enjoyable to read =] Today's my first day of school and I was hoping that you'd update before I have to go to make my day good and I'm so excited that you did! Excellent chapter again! Keep it up- I can't wait for the next one!

    Author's Response: Thanks! I'm happy to hear that you like the light moments mixed in with the emotional stuff. It can't be depressing and emotional the whole time, or otherwise it would emotionally wear you guys out.

    I'm glad that Harry took the info on the injection so well--He's probably "burnt out" on tantrums at the moment, isn't he?

    Precautions? List after list of do's and don'ts that will attempt to keep him as healthy as possible through this procedure. Food, cleanliness, meds, etc. Poor boy and Poor Sev. I'm glad he has Sev though, He'll need him.

    V.

    Author's Response: He is burnt out emotionally at the moment. As for the precautions, you're right to a point, but you only took into account the second part of the next chapter's title... Thanks!

    *huggles Harry* I love Severus. I just love him, and how sweet and kind his, and how he just wants to help. This was sad, but amazing. Can I have a lollipop AND a tissue?

    Author's Response: Thanks! Of course you can have a lollipop and a tissue. Even the man known as the greasy git can't act horribly towards a sick child. Sev does have a heart buried deep somewhere. ;)

    o.o Harry's breakdown here that was wow. Poor Harry :( At least Severus is there to reassure him I wonder how much Harry believes in it now though.

    I hope Sev will be able to help Harry pick up his pieces in the next chapter...and yes the chemo injection >_< will he still trust his new found ally...I hope so.

    Yes I am still depressed and after remembering about the chemo shot I'm anxious now too! >_<
    I want to give Harry MANY big hugs. Candy is fine it'll make me happy tissue would remind me I could get sick any time soon if I don't go to sleep soon lol!

    Author's Response: Harry's a very confused and sick child at the moment, and it'll take a while before he all his issues are sorted out. We'll see if Harry trusts Sev after the chemo injection soon. I'm not quite sure how that's going to play out yet. Thanks!

    *cries* Poor Harry! He needs a hug! (And so does Sev! I can't imagine it's very easy for him, either!) I can totally see Harry, in a last-ditch attempt to avoid facing cancer, wanting to believe that it's all a trick of Voldy's. At least he knows to expect from Voldemort.

    The whole comfort scene was amazing! I'm really glad he's starting to recognize that he feels safe around Sev. I think it'll take a while, though, before he fully believes that Snape won't leave him. He's spent his entire life without an adult that he could rely on for everything, and now that he has one, it's going to take some time for it to completely sink in that Severus is there to stay.

    Yet another wonderful chapter! I'm sorry I wasn't around the other night. I'll be sending you an email to explain.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks! It'll take a while before he fully believes Sev won't leave him. He'll need to be reminded quite a few times.

    I started reading your story today and have enjoyed it very much. I look forward to seeing your updates. I really like the interaction between Sev and Harry. keep up the good work.

    Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed my story. Sev and Harry's relationship will continue to develop and their interaction will reflect that.

    I am intrigued... Reading on...

    Two small quibbles:

    "Professor Snape is a professional, Harry. He won't let his feelings towards you effect the procedure,"

    ("Effect" should be "affect".)

    Also, this sentence is grammatically confusing:

    "Harry just didn't like needles they gave him the creeps." I suspect it is either: "Harry just didn't like needles. They gave him the creeps."
    or: Harry didn't just 'not like' needles; they gave him the creeps."

    Those were two spots that I stumbled over when reading... Otherwise, the story is drawing me in!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks. I'm glad to hear the story is drawing you in and welcome to my little corner of P&S. 

    Effect vs. affect. Ugh. That's like the one I always get confused, and I tend to be a grammar freak so it drives me crazy. I know that one's a verb and one's a noun, but *sighs* if only Word could be a little bit smarter. 

    It's the second one. Thanks. I read so fast that sometimes little awkward bits like that just don't hit me because by the time my brain processes it, my eyes are taking in the next sentence.

    I hope you continue on.

    Oh forget the tissue, by the end of the chapter I grabbed at a paper towel a tissue wouldn't have handled it.

    Author's Response: Well, whatever works. Tissue, paper towel, though tissues are a bit softer. ;) Thanks!
