??? Does he have an idea of what Edward and Carlisle are???

Your story has been so riveting that I've not been able to pull myself away long enough to even write a few lines. Now, most of the tears has dried and I can almost start breathing again, so I thought I should let you know how much your words have touched me. The excrutiating pain and raw emotions you invoke is almost to much to bear. Your story reads like poetry and is so beautiful and haunting. I'm in awe!

is that the end?

I'm so glad you are back, and writing this story. It is so well written, and Twilighted has been slightly quiet lately...So hope you continue this story,  because it's wonderful!

You did just fine with the rest. :) This is one of those fics I expect to only update once every few months, but when it updates, it's FANTASTIC. Don't worry about the delay.

great job~almost worth the wait, BUT please post soon!

This is probably my favorite FF story, because you write so well!  And because your characters are complex, true to canon, but with the maturity they would have developed over 5 years of loss and reflection.

I have just 1 criticism, and I wouldn't bother with it except that you're so close to perfection, so please don't be mad!  You're using a singular possesive form, "the Cullen's house," when the plural possessive should be "the Cullens' house."  I love reading your writing, because you don't make spelling or grammar errors, or use the wrong homonym, so this is absolutely the only thing I see!  And I can't say that about very many writers; you're pretty much the only one.  (Please don't hate me!)

And I'm sorry you've been sick, but glad you're back!

Thanks for responding to my review.  I found your story under recent updates and I liked the summary, so here I am .  I think it is really great so far.  I have about 4 more chapters to finish before I can get some sleep!  How often do you update?  Thanks for sharing your talent and creativity with all of us!

Love it!

This was fan-frigging-tastic!  I'm so happy to have gotten an update!  I just love this story so much!!

The shower scene?  Holy crow! Why aren't my showers like that???  The perfect morning after.  I even liked Bella eating the MRE - it's very in character for this story. 

I also liked the scene with Carlisle hugging Edward.  Very touching, indeed.

Thank you so much for updating!  What a treat!!

I absolutely loved the light-heartedness between Bella and Edward after they were finally able to share their bodies with each other!  He was able to tell his part of the story and they are able to move on.  I love how you recognized that while Bella has made a life for herself and would be giving things up if she became immortal, if she loves Edward as much as she does-she couldn't bear to hurt him by leaving him at her death.  That would be the most selfish act she could do, and that is just not how she would react!  Loved it!  Hope for more in the relative future-relative being your call of course!

I feel really fortunate that I have just discovered this story and so been able to read it all in one sitting. It is a stunning piece of work and I look forward to your next chapter with much anticipation.
