I love your story and am sorry I never reviewed before. I can't wait to see what happens when she sees Edward again. Great story!

Happy, happy that Bella could see Carlie!  By the way, ignore the negative stuff.  I, for one, enjoy this story.  I'd say >600 reviews ain't too shabby either!  It's your story to tell.  Thanks for the update!

Wow, I really love this story.  I love how Bella stands up to everyone but she really does miss Edward, I hope she will give him a chance to explain.  I could n ot stop crying during the chapter.  Thank you for a great story I now always look forward to Sundays as I get my next chapter.

The day of the eye surgery has finally arrived. Carlie so anxious to know how her mom is doing.  she is waiting with Seth, her dad Jake, Aunt Leah, Grandfather Carlisle (Poppa), Felix for the surgeon to come in with the updates of the surgery.  Livingston came in said surgery was successful.  More scarring than expected might need additional surgery in another year and possibly need glasses once bandages were removed.  Bella was still in recovery until vitals were stable before returned to her room.  Carlie was so excited her mom finally decided to have the surgery she called her grandmother Esme and told her all about it including grandfather was mom's doctor.  Thank goodness Bella when told that Carlie had told Esme about surgery she called to get Carlisle off the chopping block.  I can only imagine the lamblasting Carlisle got when he got home after Esme found out and he didn't tell her about the upcoming surgery. Bella smoothed things over for him.  Took pity on Carlisle especially since he kept his word and didn't tell any of the Cullen family of pending surgery.  the exciting part of this chapter was when Livingston removed the shield and bandages -- Bella was able to see light/shapes.  When lights dimmed and she opened her eyes, her first glance of the world was the face of her daughter.  The most beautiful sight in the world to her.  The one she has been wanting to see all these years.  Seeing that Carlie is her duplicate with Edward's eyes.  While still under she was dreaming of Edward and him leaving.  She called his name out loud.  All the family there, Felix, and Aro heard her call his name.  That's when Carlie let her mom know she was there.  Bella has been thinking a lot about Edward lately. My favorite part was Bella's reaction on seeing Carlie for the first time.  It was wonderful.  It brought tears to my eyes.  Have been wondering what Edward's reaction will be when he learns Bella has had the surgery and he wasn't made aware of it.  Probably be hurt and angry.  Maybe even regret that he couldn't be there for support and share the moment when the shield and bandages removed.  Sharing the moment of her seeing their daughter.

 

Yay! So glad Carlie is this first face she saw! What a sight to behold. Update soon. :)

Yeah!!! Please let her & Edward start to work on their crappy past!!!  :)

This is one of my favorite stories! Very much not a failure! Keep the updates coming!!!

Wow!  What a great chap...btw..where did Edward go?  Why was he not present?  I must of missed a chap?  Cant wait til the next chap..hope it will be soon, sitting here with a big smile on my face..so happy the surgery worked and can't wait till she sees Edward for the 1st time.thanks for sharing your story!  xo

Yay, it worked!!!! What an amazing procedure. I can only imagine what it must be like to see your child for the first time. Can't wait for the next update!

I really enjoyed that chapter, and congradulation for having the courage to writhe from bella's perspective when they take the bandages of, I would have been terefide to do so since I'v never experienced that kind of experience myself.

this latest chapter was really good, over all the story is amazing, I'm juste a little frustrated that bella and Edward havent even talked since it's starde, is it gonna happen at all or should i just expect them not to get togther at all in this story?

Great story! Do not listen to those who says it is a failure. Only good writers get those comments because of jealousy! =]

I love this story i look forward to reading it the second my smart phone says it is in my email box. This was a cute chapter. I am so impatient though and this story is working out so slowly. I really do enjoy every chapter, I just always wish the next one was right there. You have a truly addicting plot line. Don't let anyone tell you that this isn't a successful stories, that comes from someone bitter and jealous of your determination. 

What a rude thing to say and soooo not true!  You have to go by how many people are reading it but more importantly how the reviewers that you have are enjoying it!

OMG you captured the emotions of everyone really well!  I was so nervous for Bella to get her bandages off and then she saw Carlie for the first time it brought tears to my eye's!

Take care, Dixie
